The domain name of mine was appraised at $620. It's just a domain name of mine, and that is the value at which it was estimated. What does "ivory bell" mean to you?

    The name has a nice ring to it.

    Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
    So that blind people can hate them as well.

      Are you sure? I think it would be a bit flat. 8-/

      Should I add a smile to indicate to SOME here that I see the humor in YOUR post? I mean I am serious, I think it would be a bit flat, and my statement is funny too, until this statement, but, well....

            You're all quite a chorus.

            If someone merely scans, would that be a half note or a quarter note?

    Nothing really without a context. But it's a nice name. There's something
    poetic in the sound of it. Of course people may read it and assume you're
    selling ivory products.

    You'll automatically be tried and condemned in the span of about 5 seconds...
    then they might click through to see if they were right in their assumption.

          Let's see how much further we can string this out.

          Although I'm sure thunderbird is feeling quite violint towards us for orchestrating this kind of conduct.

            That's not the tone I'm taking it. I don't feel any disharmony with it at all.

    Gee you guys are always tooting your horns. The answer was clear as a bell and you seem to have missed the symbolism. This is really a lot of dischord for nothing.

          It is an interesting result. It just seems to be someone's nickname on game sites.

    Heysal,

    PLEASE don't pluck on our heart strings that way. Maybe we can string one another along some more!

        It could well be that they were not in tune when they composed their estimate.
