An undoubtedly unintentionally ironic message that pretty much sums up the sad, sorry state of e-commerce today. "You have reached www.24-7.com. Unfortunately, we are now closed."
Sure, they're open 24 hours, seven days. Just not in a row!

but remember, even 7-11 closes for three hours once a week. no doubt these fine salespersons will reopen in no time, offering their finest wares for all the world to purchase at the most reasonable of prices.

Heh. I know someone who was doing an ecommerce job that despaired of ever acquiring that URL. (I think eventually they went with twentyfourseven or twentyfour7 or some such.) Goes to show you that a URL is not a real business.
