Young Man Makes a Million Bucks on Internet (Legally)

pretty clever. good for him.

wow, that website is a really cool idea.

lucky little ****! I wish I would have thought of that!

I've followed that site since a couple of month now - quite inpressive!

Check out his blog: if you read the first posting and then skip to the middle, and then go to the last few, you really get a good picture of how it all happened and how the mindset of the owner of the site changes throughout the last several months.


I've read somewhere that there are over 350 copy-cat sites by now.

totally cool

I really feel very happy when I hear stories like this. Apparently, in this society, a person with drive, and a good idea, can really make it in this world!

I have this idea about a plastic ring about 3 feet around that one could swivel around one's hips in a perpetual motion sorta way. Like a hoola dancer.

Dys, If its 3' across wouldn't it be a plastic hoop? and like a hoola dancer you say? It sounds really cool. Maybe you can name it "plastic dancer."

My idea would be 'humping hup'.

No, better: Hoola hup.


Eh, doesn't sound so good, especially not in English.


That's it: HULA HOOP!!!!
(Just give me 3.5% from the sales, dys, and a perhaps a map of NM.)

Walter, there are no maps of New Mexico. Your horse knows the way.

3.5% and a horse really is a better offer. Thanks, dys, .... and have a adulterated Tequila on your birthday.

An update:
