So all of a sudden I cannot get to my svn repository. Hmm. I cant get to my domain either. Instead I get a big flashy GoDaddy page brimming with web advertisements.
Turns out my domain, registered with GoDaddy, had expired. I never got an email warning but sometimes that happens.
While trying to run the gauntlet of upsell adverts for unnecessary crap and renew my domain, I spent a little more time than usual at GoDaddy.
For kicks I watched a Bob Parsons video. What... a... trip...
This guy is like a middle-aged Marine sergeant. "We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time." Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out. This is the kind of guy up at dawn, unlimited energy and a never-ending stream of sayings.
On one hand it is most amusing. On the other hand, between the babes, he actually has some interesting stuff to say. His 16 rules (available in 3 sizes at the GoDaddy store) are pretty good.
Who would have thought the "brains" behind those terrible TV commercials had something interesting to say.
