Okay, so what asshole took MarkIbold@gmail.com?
 

Every American—indeed, every human being, regardless of nationality deserves to be rightfully and accurately represented on the World Wide Web—the communication gateway into the next century and beyond—without having to resort to nonsensical aliases with random strings of numbers tacked onto the end. In an era of global wireless technology, our very identities are at stake. It's highly unethical at best, criminal at worst, for others to wantonly abscond with them.

If only, asshole, you could have seen the anger and revulsion that washed over my face as I found that MarkIbold@gmail.com, Ibold@gmail.com, Ibold.Mark@gmail.com, and MarkIboldRules@gmail.com had all been taken. If only you could have felt my heart leap to my throat upon realizing that Markibold@gmail.com would not work either, as Gmail addresses are not case-senstitive. If only you could have heard my cry of anguish when, in a last, desperate move, I typed in crookedrain@gmail.com, only to be rejected once more and finally forced to accept the abomination that is Mark.Ibold20061@gmail.com.

Please, whoever you are, come forward. I will not ask you to relinquish the email adress, or even hand it over. I just need peace of mind.

i feel your pain, mark. especially MarkIboldRules@gmail.com would have been such a cool address for you. why don't we all spam these people, whoever they are?

You crazy, man.

have you tried hotmail? 'Mark'

Gmail is the new hotmail. I use it because it has a 'G', therefore showing that not only do I have an email adress, I have a 'G' email adress. Gangsta.

I feel Mark's pain.

for my 40th birthday i'll get me a "gangsta"mail address too. hopefully SunCityGirlRulez@gmail.com will be free... please don't take it!

taking gmail-address and joining a hip internet forum is the thing to do when having a 40th birthday ibold style. the ibold & beautiful... happy birthday mark!

nice avatar sun city girl, i havn't seen that one used before. anyone who who that girl is?

thanks. i'm not sure if it's told on the sleeve notes but someone here probably knows?

I wanted Disappearer@gmail.com to be my email, but it was taken, so I spelled it without one of the P's.

So you have to explain every time so people don't think you just can't spell?

Yes. :(

Does posting your email address on a forum permit strangers to bombard you with adoring, obsessive, potentially lascivious emails, peppered with entendres about stroking your bass?

did it ever occur to you that there is more than one Mark Ibold on the planet?

Happy Birthday!

Same thing happened to my man Sean Penn
