What about Jillian Michaels? Won’t the LBGTwhatever (I can never remember all of their initials) claim descrimination?

She’s not much over five feet, and around 100 pounds. I remember there was a minor controversy over her stature giving her a competitive advantage back when the IRL’s minimum car weight didn’t include the driver...

Of course that advantage was offset by her driving to some extent.

You name your company “Go Daddy” and then whine when potential customers do not take you seriously?

My wife has just about had a belly full of her calling me all the time.

Go Daddy is currently the largest ICANN-accredited registrar in the world, and is four times the size of its closest competitor.

Something is working....

She is more of a “I’ll take whatever is available” kind of gal.

Most people would probably never know who you use to register your domain.

Yeah, she is the one who is like a garden gate - swings both ways.

Everybody else would have to drive around the track backwards before she will win a race. ;-)

It was inevitable. Both Danica and GoDaddy now want to be “taken seriously” and you can’t do that flashing a bunch of t&a.

Either stuff like Frank Luntz does for politicians showed that the Go-Daddy thing had run its course or I have another suggestion
Danica is MARRIED we hardly ever see Mr Danica, but it could be possible that Ms Danica is with CHILD and does not want to do commericals with the mommy belly...just saying.
Remember the Freeper rules tho...this story is useless without lots of “not guilty” picutres

I see that she is upholding her end...
Certainly looks that way.

>>>I have clients who would never use GoDaddy, because of GoDaddy’s slutty image. It’s a good business choice

Same here. If you’ve ever read about or interviews of the owner, the sleeze starts from the top.

Fine for a whole swath of the internet but not for a lot of businesses.

Yes Jillian is gay but she didn’t mention it ever on Biggest Loser. I only recently saw an article about her and her partner adopting a child, AND the partner had a child. She had been trying to adopt for a long time and it just happened the adoption went through the same week the partner gave birth. So in one week she had an infant and a child almost 2 years old in her home.

Patrick is married to Paul Edward Hospenthal, who had previously been her physical therapist while she was recovering from a yoga injury.

Yoga injury?

Me thinks that I'd best take my dirty mind and get away from this thread before I say something really bad :^)
