New to DNF - old timer (bar.com, place.com, company.com, etc)

Hi gang,

I've been lurking for a while, but got prompted into saying "hi" by the little gizmo at the top of my screen.

I got a gaggle of generic names back in the pre-web days (when they were free). Got a little bit famous in the mid-90's when I turned down $50k from CNet for television.com. I still have a piece of that one and we're working on a project with it...

I sold a couple -- company.com and ing.com -- so I'm in the "seven-figures club" from domain-name sales...

I have a project under way with one -- corp.com -- which we're bringing up as a boutique registry aimed at business-types who missed their name in the .com space. so, you missed acme.com, you could get acme.corp.com instead. Read all about it at the Corp.com registry site.

And the rest (bar.com, pub.com, grill.com, place.com, cafes.com, haven.com are the bestest of the lot) are parked at PPC sites waiting for me to do something with them.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it. Hi all!
