    You know, I hope someone steals the domain for goatse.cx so it points somewhere far more harmless.

    My eyes have been permanently wounded by trolls posting that link here.

      I sued Verisign for accidentally transferring jonkatzfanclub.com to me, but since only the goatse.cx guy ever visited, I got only 65 cents.

    You're KIDDING!! Verisign? Incompetent? The hell you say! Who could possibly have guessed? Why, I've had nothing but an easy time with them, and their procedures have been nothing but pleasurable to conform to. And I have *not* abandoned them for other registrars.
