N.C. man gets $35,000 for Bush’s library domain


RALEIGH, N.C. — A North Carolina man is now $35,000 richer thanks to President Bush’s sheepish advisers who let his library’s Web site address expire.

The News & Observer of Raleigh reports today that Web developer George Hunger was searching through a list of expiring domain names two years ago when he noticed a treasure. The Web address www.GeorgeWBushLibrary.com was about to expire.

He bought the rights for $5. Hunger says he recently sold them for $35,000 to Florida-based Yuma Solutions, which the Bush Library Foundation said is in charge of Web site care. Company owner Mark Mills didn’t return the newspaper’s calls.

Bush’s library and museum will be in Dallas.

Hunger said he isn’t looking for another presidential name. BarackObamaLibrary.com is already taken.

someone should look up the rights for BarackHObamaLirary.com since he was sworn in as Barack Hussein Obama and was announced as Barack H. Obama

I already own that domain, but I'll sell it for 35 cents.
I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.
