Today, when they announced the President-elect, they opted out of saying his middle name. Instead they said Barack “H” Obama. Now, come on, what is so bad about Hussein? It’s not like it has a bad conotation.
Seriously though, on this very historical Presidential Inauguration, I want to say thank you President Bush, and I wish you all the best President Obama. Oh, and I’m especially siked today because my cell phone plan renews, and wow, I was getting close to going over.

I’m ready for some CHANGE! You know, like another 3.5% drop in the stock market.
Oh wait, that’s more of the same!
Seriously though, as soon as the media brown nosing is over, I hope some serious shit gets accomplished. I, for one, have been avoiding major news sources today for obvious reasons.
Here is more information than you were probably expecting from me about registering a domain name:
First, you register a domain name (say thedailyelephant.com) with godaddy (before you do this – google Godaddy coupon codes, and write them down, I got my domain for half price this way) then, once it is registered, you have to change where it is directing.
Here’s the steps:
1 – Once you’re in your godaddy account: click on DOMAINS (brings up a drop down)-My Domain (opens a new window)
2 – On the top icon bar, there’s a button called NAMESERVERS, when you click on it, it will ask you to put in three name servers, put in the following:
NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
NS3.WORDPRESS.COM
3 – Click ok, or confirm or whatever, and then go to wordpress. Log into your site, on the lefthand toolbar, go all the way down to UPGRADES, and click on that.
4 – Next, you go to the DOMAINS tab, and click on that.
5 – There is a box for you to enter your domain. You enter it, then wordpress says you do not have enough credits to add a domain, and so you click on the little button that says “Get credits.”
6 – It takes you to paypal. It’s $10 for 10 credits. Once you pay on paypal, you have to log back into wordpress, and click on upgrades, and click on domains, and add your domain AGAIN.
7 – (I swear on the Pope’s Nightgown you are almost done)
8 – It says you have enough credits, and then you proceed.
9 – It should now show you two domains: one is thedailyelephant.wordpress.com, and the other is thedailyelephant.com. Click the PUT BLOG HERE link next to thedailyelephant.com. AND YOU ARE DONE.
Every time I asked someone about how to do this they said it was easy. IT WAS NOT. And I HAVE web design experience, and even I thought this was way more complicated than it needed to be.
And there you go, and epic comment about register and rerouting a domain.
ALSO – when registering a domain, TELL THE TRUTH. In the event you become the next Huffington Post or something, you do not want someone to be able to take your domain because you cannot prove you own it, like saying your name is Busty Lalovesthedick or something equally as funny, but useless when it comes to the legal system.
Also – godaddy will try to sell you GOBS of other useless stuff. Ignore it. Just register for your domain name, you don’t really need any of the other stuff.
The code: gdbb363 gets you 10% off.
Good God I need a hobby.
I saw something hilarious on John Stewart last night…a montage of clips going between Obama’s inaugural address and speeches Bush has given…and they were saying lots of very very similar things…for someone operating on the platform of “change” that seemed rather odd.
But you knew that.
Unrelated question: On your “rules you should live by” list, number17 reads:
Never date a salesman. Or the next thing you know he will be borrowing your car and stealing the engagement ring that you had in your glove box to return to your ex-boyfriend. Well, maybe that was just a string of bad luck, but I’m just throwing that out there.
Did that seriously happen to you?! I know you say that everything you write about actually happened to you…but I just DON’T GET IT! How do all of these absurd things happen to one person?!
oh rachel… rachel rachel rachel. i guess i have an idea for my next blog. engagement ring stealing guy. OF COURSE it happened to me. are you forreals? you have no. idea. how. crazy. my. life. has. been.
After reading all of the stuff you’ve been through, I’m still convinced you’re at least 45 years old. Seriously.
I would bring up some of the other ridiculous things I know about, but I don’t want to spoil any of your future blog posts.
brandon. yes. i am convinced of that as well. i am. i gotta say, if have aged quite well.
