<p>Do your bit to help a sister out: Dean of textism.com has a new <a href="http://www.textism.com/article/505/">Google Bomb</a> that he needs everyone’s help with. It’s to help spread the word about <a href="http://leslie.harpold.com">Leslie Harpold</a> and the manhandling and overwhelming incompetence and indifference she has suffered at the hands of <a href="http://www.textism.com/article/494/">Verisign</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.textism.com/article/494/">Verisign</a>, if you remember the tale, sold Leslie’s wonderful domains hoopla.com and smug.com right out of Leslie’s grasp, to some morally deficient weiner. It could have happened to anyone. Spread the word about <a href="http://www.textism.com/article/494/">Verisign</a>. It’s for a good, righteous cause. </p>
