We missed a special b'day

Who ya reckon showed him how to get it?

I have him beat by a few months, but he definitely has the better domain. I still have my old BBS domain for sentimental reasons, not currently using it for anything other than routing 11 year old email addresses for old friends. datadim.com is a few months older than gonzo.com....but they were hanging out together long before 1993.

And at least once a month we kick each other in the ass for not grabbing a ton of porn domains back then.

Wanna know what's worse? At that time, they were FREE. That's right, no annual fee at all. But the problem was the nic wouldn't give you a domain unless you have domain services for it, and as simple as that seems now, finding someone who would sell you DNS services back then was a major pain. And the idea that you might want more than one domain name was totally foreign to everyone. This was during the period where the internet was still very much dominated by universities and their admins, the business people had not yet invaded.
