information Missing the boat in the early days

Funny, yesterday my son was surfing the internet and came across this article I wrote a few years back. He said while he's heard bits and pieces of the story from me over the years, he never grasped how close I actually came to being an early domainer.

For your reading pleasure...

I always thought everything was taken or am i stupid for taking what isn't taken. I still registered bad names years ago and think i can register better names now with what is left than what i could. I had no insight to think domains would be as popular as toilet paper.
