I like this quote

Actually, there was an article in the Washington Post awhile back
that reported that people are planning ahead, and registering
domains that will, in the future, want to be used by commercial
establishments. The main example of the article was a gentleman
that had registered hertz.com, trump.com, and several (19 seems to
ring a bell) others

Another couple of favorites of mine:

Music.net - beware domain scalper!
http://groups.google.com.au/group/r...domain+for+sale&rnum=1&hl=en#c5ae66451a2174d0

Women.net? Anyone interested? No?
http://groups.google.com.au/group/n...ame"+"for+sale"&rnum=2&hl=en#b3bca63050dbece2

Metallica.com for sale..

Ha Ha I love these 2 quotes

Sure, music.net isn't rude or anything but I think selling it back to
"society" might be wrong. Wrong is who's eyes, however - is the question.

But, when
some slime has something more generic like "cool.net" or "music.net" and
they just want to profit off of it - that pisses me off.

I wonder how our postings 10 yrs from today will be viewed?

Gee, I wonder if 10 yrs ago - Music.net would be sell for $ 1,500. ?

Today, it could easily sell for $ 500,000 to an enduser.

I guess Edwin decided to sell Libel.com.

Seems like yesterday. "They wouldn't let just one person have Wallstreet.com would they? Nah." That is a quote from yours truly.
