NY Girl Of My Dreams


This is really an interesting and true story.
The website had only one page last Sunday, a drawing as you see it.
I had to check, as usual, if this is not some kind of spam. It looked genuine and refreshingly simple.

I checked WHOIS and it shows that Patrick Moberg really registered that domain last Sunday. Here is the partial output of WHOIS lookup.

Read Patrick's desperate and emotional story as it is evolving here NYgirlofmydreams.com

Apparently the story is very popular. Here are some links.

So, the story ends well. Thank you.
The guy is very creative, obviously; and the fact that Internet is now an integral part of our modern lives is true. So what's next to brew? Are you going to Starbucks, like everyone else?
