As unbelieveable it sounds, I was actually able to register the url: 

www.bestholidaygreetingsfromdickdebartolomadsmaddestwriterandthegizwiz.com

******************

I thought for sure someone else would have taken it! Anyway about half an hour after I registered that url, built a mini website on it and published it on line, the server for it crashed. The folks at 1and1.com who provide the web hosting for that url have been unable to get it back on line! So I moved my message to an easier to remember web address:

****************

www.whatthehellisthenameofthatwebsite.com

****************

and that's where you are now. Basically my entire message was in the original, crashed url, so I'll just repeat it here:

**********************************************

Best Holiday Greetings from Dick DeBartolo, MAD Magazine's Maddest Writer and the Giz Wiz!

*********************************************

Having said that I realized that that was not the entire message. I wanted to add HAPPY NEW YEAR! And that's where my luck ran out! As fast as I could I tried to register:

But it was taken already!  Damn.  But it's the thought that counts, right?  So happy holidays and all the best in the new year.
