Perhaps this one is only funny to me because I’m Russian… but whatever.
Found this at EnglishRussia the other day…
Life as a Vicious Cycle… .or the greatest blessing? March 29, 2008

“People all grow up to die.” – System of a Down
“The sole meaning of life is to serve humanity.” – Leo Tolstoy
I wish that one day, sometime soon, I would just wake up and be a billionaire (who doesn’t?). I hate having to “work” for a living. The whole concept seems totally counterintuitive to me. Why can’t I just move to Monaco already, live out my life on a yacht in the peaceful harbor, be a good host to friends and relatives, challenge strangers to battles of wits, read Balzac, Tolstoy, and Dostoevsky, write more blogs such as this one, hold heated discussions about minorities and other racy issues (JUST KIDDING!), smoke cranberry hookah and drink fine Belgian beer, host lavish parties from dusk till dawn, and make this lifestyle a part of my every day reality, rather than a mere dream I keep playing over and over in my mind just before I have to crack open my eyes at 7:30AM every weekday morning. What indeed is the point of life? Many say “children.” What an evil joke, however, god is playing on us, forcing every new generation of humans to grow, learn, and practice the same boring skills necessary for self-sustenance and survival, rediscovering the same ideas, over and over again. Where is this all headed, and why must I be a part of it? I believe that we all deserve our own little piece of paradise, and deep in my heart, I trust that we can all have it, that and a quiet peace of mind for the short amount of time we’ve been allotted on this planet, to take life in with great big breaths of wonderful, instead of short gasps of suffering merely to endure, and never really to begin to live. How do I manifest my dreams… and do it quickly?
Domain names as status symbols? March 18, 2008
Posted by unemployedalcoholic in Business, Comedy, Domains, Inspirational, Investing, Life, Society.add a comment
The idea of domain names having purely collectible value (that is, in addition to the obvious commercial potential) has been raised by many individuals. What I want to touch upon today though, is a possible emerging trend that will have people pursuing domain names purely to say that they own a catchy name (we all agree that meaningful word combination DOT COMs are quickly becoming an increasingly scarce resource, correct?)
I mean, if everyone has a facebook or myspace page, why do we not all have our own domain name to go with it (think of the potential market here… think of this niche!!!)?
For example, the next time a girl tells me that I’m crazy or unreliable or whatever, I can quickly retort with: “Baby, I *OWN* EMOTIONALLYSTABLE.COM” – come on now, who’s with me? heh. I could use a similar trick to bring up my domain name FairyTaleLove.com , which I am about to begin developing by the way 
What do ya’ll think???

While doing my weekly home decorations shopping… came across an interesting German catalog of porcelain figures… looked like a fairly innocent site at first… until I saw this guy:
here’s some more of the same:
these only get better… check it out: http://porzellanvitrine.de/

What to do with domain name FairyTaleLove.com? March 9, 2008
Posted by unemployedalcoholic in Comedy, Domains, Inspirational, Love, Society.add a comment
I also own FairyTaleLovers.com
Initial thoughts:
1) Some sort of children’s storybook website?
2) A huge adult movie megasite where actors dress up as cartoon characters?
3) Sell to Disney?
I’d love to hear your thoughts.
I haven’t given this one much thought yet, but as you can see, the opportunities in the domain name industry are still vast and still expanding…
