I printed out labels for all those names, and my entire family (myself, wife, and three children) put labels on the envelopes, licked stamps (I sent them all first class —- at that time I didn’t know about bulk mail) folded the brochures, put them in the envelopes, and licked them shut. I licked so many envelopes and had so much glue on my tongue, that I don’t think I talked normally for at least two days.

Bob Parson seems to have to made many honest mistakes and learned from them. One of the thing i liked about him was Persistence, he kept trying and trying until he succeeded. A true entrepreneur.

You know, I was listening to what Bob Parsons had to say back when this was actually posted, and he's a pretty sharp guy. And in complete contradiction to the GoDaddy site, he is a really no-BS type of person, at least that's what I gathered from his early podcasts.
