Title: Terrible domain name

I see that this domain nameis expiring:

FRESNOCOUNTYINTERAGENCYCOUNCILFORCHILDRENANDFAMILIES.COM

Gee, maybe they're giving it up because no one could type that much goddamn text before becoming fatigued. Talk about a terrible domain name, lol. Christ, I've read books shorter than that.

Reminds me of this Welsh town. I knew a lady from there; she said that the sign on the train station was longer than the station.
