sarkasam.ca

I've made a list of what it takes/costs to set up a simple web presence (the way I do it).

A domain name - .ca is 12.95 + GST at domainsatcost.ca that also now includes DNS handling
- if you want separate DNS - zonomi.com takes care of that for less than $1 per month (depending on usage)

Hosting (the server where your stuff is kept) can cost from $5 a month up, depending on what things you want your site to do.  For a simple brochure site - to let people get in touch and show them pictures of what you do - the shared server hosting should be sufficient.

 Using domainsatcost.ca as a registrar (because even though I don't go there, or even actually call very often, they're right down the street and really do provide good service for a reasonable price, and I always feel like they know I'm right close by so they better not mess me around).

I was using a cool DNS service called zonomi.com because domainsatcost did not include DNS hosting with their registration, but now they do :)

So for when I have to do this again (like, right after Christmas):

 Looking forward to Kenneth Branagh as Olivier.  

 Expectations:  It's George Clooney.  Looks like it will make me cry.  Seeing it early, no eye makeup. 

Went to see this with very high hopes, partly because of the cast, but also because we were going to the new AVX (pay a little more for reclining seats, and advanced seat choices).  It was nice not having to rush to get good seats after pre-purchasing tickets, but the recliners didn't stay reclined, so either we weren't doing it right, or they aren't worth an extra $3.  

I'm not a real U.S.A. fan, but I don't think they'd degenerate quite that quickly. 

Almost very good on a lot of levels, but not quite

very much the same.  remember not to watch the credits if the movie didn't quite gross you out

compared to Hangover?
