Wish i could be there. Enjoy!

Sounds fun! If it was in london I'd be there although then the name would'nt fit.

You are so giving....just a domain angel! I'll call you soon to catch up!

UPDATE:

I sat down and had a very candid conversation with Heidi Powell about her ongoing fight to keep the domain name she’s had for over a decade. Heidi’s husband gave her her domain name- HeidiPowell.com as an anniversary present back in 2005. After using the name primarily for email and forwarding for the past 10+ years, along came another Heidi Powell. The reality star wanted the HeidiPowell.com domain name for her own brand and first attempted to obtain it through a cybersquatting lawsuit. After it became apparent she wouldn’t prevail, she changed her strategy and has been trying to obtain the domain name through opening up an old bankruptcy case the Powells had gone through many years ago.

Food and beverages* will be included in DnHouston Dinner Cruise admission, and ticket proceeds will be donated towards the Heidi Powell domain defense fund. If you are unable to attend, but still wish to support this cause, please check out Heidi’s GoFundMe campaign
