remember it’s [www.whitehouse.gov](http://www.whitehouse.gov) or [www.whitehouse.org](http://www.whitehouse.org) Whatever you do, don’t put in www-whitehouse-com because it is a porn site. No really. I thought they were going to try to shut it down but it seems it’s still up. _edited to remove direct link to porn site - and I’m still laughing about this - UB_ ---

No I didn’t. I previewed and realized it was a valid link and was going to replace the (.) with (dot). I was just really hoping no one else noticed. ---

I thought they were going to try to shut it down but it seems it’s still up. **Moderator’s Notes:** I’m going to assume this was just a real silly mistake; it certainly made **me** laugh anyway. Could be the botched post of the week. ---
