50 Oil rigs converted for hosting

I know alot of you think Shoehorn, and I are a couple of jokesters, or a bit goofy, but Shoehorn is one of the smartest business men I have ever met. He worked really hard on all aspects of this deal. Many times when I was ready to give up, he kept going forward.

We are really excited to fully launch.

You were as much the driving force behind this as I was, stop being so modest.

Hey man not knockin you guys one bit. Just sound funny with the postings i am reading. Kinda curious myself how this will pan out for you guys....

Will the servers be water cooled ?

We like humor.

One day all of GFY will salute you, and Japanese girls everywhere (in Japan) will sing songs of praise in your honor (not that they will necessarily understand the words that they are singing).

Here is the "We're Number One (Ichiban)" GFY salute that I have been trying to teach during my vast travels in the land of the rising yen...I think I can be a valuable liaison if you guys bring me on board.

I'm thinking this will catch on big time...

Actually, one of the subsidiaries of one of our investor companies developed cryogenically cooled server cabinets a little over a year ago, so chances are we'll be using that. :2 cents:

Space for one more server on my rig:

The other one is in the repair shop :disgust

Ours is a 5th generation deepwater, that one looks like a High-Specification Semisubmersible (no pun intended).

Did I mention that I have webbed feet?

ADG Webmaster

I think you might have on October 25, 2002.

That was the day when Dan Aykroyd revealed publically that he had webbed feet. It was a special day for all of us similarly afflicted/gifted...

God Bless Dan Aykroyd!!!

That is some sweet stuff ! I'm laughing thinking about this very hard LOL. I wonder what your new host co will be called

http://chiohost.com or sharkyfartshost.com lol

A sneak peak at the logo concept. I am thinking it needs a bit more bulb, what do I know, that's for the marketing guys to figure out.

I'll have Chio post a draft of the logo we just got back from the marketing people, hang on.

He beat me to it.

Bubble eye fish are a sign of good luck in some Asian cultures...I think your Japanese partners will like this...

Anyone see the irony of "the pirate" creating a host on the open waters? lol
Good luck with it guys! I want to come visit. :)

I'm simply providing some working capital from some NL accounts of mine. Shoehorn was the idea man, and his drive, and determination are what brought this project to light.

When Fishbulbs.com launches I think you'll all wish you ate more milk, and cookies. That's Shoehorns secret to some really great business models.

Someone already tried this on an abandoned military installation in the north sea.

I didn't mean to take the spotlight off Shoehorn. Major props to both you guys.

That's quite different actually. The people who started that were more trying to start a vigilante hosting company.

Cow and dolphin is similarily different...

I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.

I'm lost on this one. Will the servers be the oil rig and someone there to monitor them? and what do you plan to gain from doing this?

I love Social Distortion's version of "Ring of Fire":

Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by one's desire
I fell down into a ring of fire

Chorus:
I fell into a burning ring of fire
Went down down down and the flames went higher
It burns burns burns that ring of fire that ring of fire

The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like ours meet
I hide before you like a child
Ohhh but the fire went wild

Chorus:
I fell into a burning ring of fire
Went down down down and the flames went higher
It burns burns burns that ring of fire that ring of fire and it burns

Chrous:
I fell into a burning ring of fire
Went down down down and the flames went higher
It burns burns burns that ring or fire that ring of fire

The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like ours meet
I hide before you like a child
Ohhh but the fire went wild

Chorus:
I fell into a burning ring of fire
Went down down down and the flames went higher
It burns burns burns that ring of fire that ring of fire

(One more time)

Chorus:
I fell into a burning ring of fire
Went down down down and the flames went higher
It burns burns burns that ring of fire that ring of fire
That ring of fire
That ring of fire

HELL 'YA!!!

I also shot the Sheriff, but I did not shoot the Deputy.

Definately.

If you guys need a name for your company... I'll sell you ADULTOFFSHORE.COM, seems quite appropriate. Otherwise, kudos on the creativity and effort if this is for real! That would take some big balls to live and work that far in the middle of nowhere with no hope of help. I can't even imagine the operating costs! You'll have to look hard to find webmasters willing to pay so much per megabit, very few are printing money these days.

Brad

cool, will it be cheaper than HavenCo on Sealand?

www.havenco.com

I tried adding you on ICQ earlier and I am waiting for authorization. I am in Michigan and want to tour MojoHost. :)

That's a great name, I imagine a domain like that would fetch a pretty penny, but we invested so much in the oil rig facility we'll have to stick with fishbulbs.com. If the whole hosting thing doesn't work out with can always turn it into a blog about Christopher Walken.

http://empress.buzzstuff.net/archive...lken-thumb.jpg

I'm only on ICQ when I'm in the office.. I'll look for you tomorrow! You can come over any day! Love to give you a tour and go out to lunch. Where do you live?

As far as the domain name is concerned, I have it listed on Afternic. Also, I have OFFSHORECORPS.COM there as well. You were right about the price, I just raised it because it was listed too low. LOL If you were interested in either, I'd give you a great price.

Cheers,

Brad

If it doesn't work also we're going to turn the oil rig into an offshore monkey knife fights stadium/interspecies wedding chapel.

Lake Fenton at the moment. :)

I have an MP3 of Walken doing a reading of Poe's 'The Raven.'

I can't wait until we can download food off the internet. I could really go for a english muffin right about now.

I know it's not quite what you asked for...

...but I assure you, the elves are still working on it.

Well we signed the papers, and are flying out to check out the site in a couple of days. Should be a nice helicopter ride. Shoehorn CALL me. You didn't sign one of the pages. I can fax it over for you, but call me anyway you JERK!

That's just fucking brilliant!!1 :thumbsup You guys really have to much time on Your hands.. :winkwink:

My associates and I have secured major investment from the Shitonu financial group and will be setting up hosting in an abandoned Russian station on the moon. Stay tuned!

thats is awesome... i will be coining that phrase.... :thumbsup

awesome hosting comes with abp ;)

This is the funniest thread i have read in a longtime, no one can really think they are seriously doing this. Great Joke guys :thumbsup
