:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Ok we have a sale! Guys get in now and snap up some domains, they are starting to move now and the PRICE IS RIGHT. :guitar:
“Gee Santa, I would rather have a few of these domains then a stupid old Red Ryder BB Gun”
“Good thinking Kid! At least you wont shoot your eye out and you will probably earn a couple a bucks!”
Ok I have reduced prices. This is as low as I am going to go. Whatever domains dont sell will go back into my library.
Please take a look at the domains you like today. Most are under $100. Consider them a gift from Bill Frist. I am basically giving them away to raise Thanksgiving gas money.
What does “GESIHA” mean?
A literal translation would be :
“Domain which makes owner much money.”

Geisha:
Quote:Geisha originated as skilled professional entertainers; originally most were male. Geisha used their skills in traditional Japanese arts, music, dance, and storytelling. Town (machi) geisha worked freelance at parties outside the various pleasure quarters, while quarter (kuruwa) geisha entertained at parties within the pleasure quarters. As the artistic skills of high-ranking courtesans declined, the skills of the geisha, who were both male and female, became more in demand.The geisha tradition takes many of its mannerisms from Kabuki. Male geisha, both past and present, tended to take on the sexual humor of Kabuki, carefully balancing their appeal as to not intimidate their male customers. Male geisha (taikomochi) were usually ugly, previously wealthy men who spent so much money on geisha that they had to turn professional. Popular geisha and Kabuki actors have generally been mutually supportive. The early predecesors of geisha were the female Kabuki actors. Geisha tradition is also connected with Noh, primarily in the Kyoto geisha’s dance styles.
Male geisha (sometimes known as hōkan, more commonly known as taikomochi) gradually began to decline, and by 1800 female geisha (originally known as onna geisha, literally “woman geisha”) outnumbered them by three to one, and the term “geisha” came to be understood as referring to skilled female entertainers, as it does today.
As a profession, they are entertainers and conversationalists, much like professional ballet dancers, classical musicians, or party MCs. They do give public concerts, but the majority of their business is in private engagements. Depending on what hanamachi they work in, their “gei” specialty differs. There are geisha who dance, geisha who play shamisen, and geisha who do both. Their clientele are most often businessmen, those with an appreciation for the classical arts and with money enough to pay for the expensive fees.
