and now.. for your cultural stimulation and enjoyment: an excerpt from the
upcoming really-really-off-broadway faux shakespear show: Cochetti and
Juliet: A Domain Transfer Tragedy.

'Tis not just thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not Network Solutions.
What's Network Solutions? it is nor honorable, nor fair,
Nor honest, nor helpful, nor any other quality
Belonging to a true company. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a peice of asscheese
By any other name would smell as foul;
So Network Solutions would, were it not Network Solutions call'd,
Retain that egregious imperfection which it owes
Without that title. Network Solutions, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all my time, money, and sanity!"
