Rantings, mostly…

After being swamped with offers and requests for this domain I have finally sifted through all 4 of them.

Yep, four.

• Declined
• Violation of DreamHost’s TOS
• Never replied to initial correspondence
• Accepted

The final of which being a friend who offered to share the costs of this site and provide some experience elsewhere.  So there you have it.

Oh wait.

She wants me to continue blogging whenever the hell I get around to it because it is therapeutic.

*shrugs*

And not a single one of them used the comments.

I think I am fed up with what toebot.com has become.  Not so much in that I hate it, I don’t!  I just cannot for the life of me keep up with the mundane aspect of updating a blog about absolutely nothing.

Therefore I’ve decided to allow ANYONE to use it for ANYTHING they want provided it does not violate DreamHost’s TOS.

The other provision I have is that if the site provides you with any amount of income, monetization, or advertising revenue then I am to reap a modest 10% on top of whatever additional bandwidth charges you may incur.  I do not really see you having to pay extra for bandwidth, but we’ll discuss that if/when the time comes you see fit to take over toebot.com.

I will still have full access to the site in some form or another, but you will be given full domain access via the DreamHost Control Panel and will be able to do anything you like with it.

• Add or Remove MySQL Databases
• Run any server-side script allowable (which it is extremely lienient), including:
  PHP
  Perl
  Python
• And I believe there is another one or two, but I’m too lazy to check.
• Create hundreds of e-mail aliases.  whatever@toebot.com
• Unlimited sub-domains.  http://whatever.toebot.com

To summarize:

• I will always own TOEBOT.COM.
• We can have something legally drafted and agreed upon before proceeding (or you can trust me, I don’t care either way).

  You can even choose the attorney to draft the original contract.  You’ll note that I will use my own attorney to review the contract and modify where necessary.

• The site is yours for as long as you wish to own it.  I don’t care if you park it, load it with advertising, or host dolphin porn.
• As long as we both[1] agree on the terms and length, have a blast.

[1] Unless there are multiple persons involved in the acquisition of toebot.com.

And yes I reserve the right to say, “Sorry, but no.”

If you are at all interested, simply leave a comment.  You do not need to put personally identifiable information in the comment.  I can always view the address you made the comment with and I will contact you from there.

Yes you can inform me of your desires and purpose for the site in the comment.  You can also indicate whether or not you wish for me to tell you an immediate answer via the comment.

Anything else that I have left out or is unclear, let me know.

Eh, not so hot, but definitely cool.

No more forgotten thoughts, ideas, or other miscellaneous garbage that no one cares about, anymore.

Yay!

EDIT: Um… sure would have been nice if it worked. The entire body of the e-mail — the post’s content — was not posted.

Yeah, yeah, we’re only 2 hours into it, but I plan on lapsing into a coma momentarily, so here’s to all my Leprechaun buddies out there.

So, here’s a few tips for your Irish lads and lasses:

1.  Never show your arse to a law enforcement officer.

2.  Never bribe a law enforcement officer.

3.  Never hit a law enforcement officer.

4.  Never spit on or at a law enforcement officer.

5.  Never swing wildly on someone who bumps you in a nightclub as they may be an undercover law enforcement officer.

6.  Never throw your beer on a law enforcement officer.

7.  Never bite a law enforcement officer.

8.  Never motion with your hands like you’re firing a gun at a law enforcement officer.

9.  Never tell a law enforcement officer, “Come and get me then, you fuggin’ wanker!”  (Alternatively, don’t call them a “steam hole,” either.  Apparently they ALL know what it means.)

And last but not least, believe it or not…

10.  Never grab a law enforcement officer’s crotch and attempt to kiss them.

This list has been made possible by those wonderfully inebriated and lovable cousins and friends in my life — and who said the Irish don’t know how to have fun?

Éirinn go Brách!

I got the high score on the high difficulty (next was “impossible”) level of QWERTY Warriors just now — although I’m sure it won’t last.

The only thing that I REALLY want to know is this…

The other high scorers — did they finally just quit, or did they actually lose?  Because I quit.  My wrists and forearms were starting to hurt.

In case, I get booted down a notch, I’ve uploaded a screen shot as well.

P.S.  I’ll try the impossible level when my hands stop burning.

Oh yeah, don’t I feel special.  I finally got my HTC Touch yesterday.

Interesting little device, although it is a bit lackluster.  I really don’t know what the hell I expected out of a Pocket PC, but I mean, I guess it’s good — what do I have to compare it to?
