That's a chuckle - all they have to do is get a local dialup-register a
domain and ask their local provider to set up an A record for
www.insert_gratuitous_sex_domain_here.com to point to their near-static
ip.  If their connection goes down and their lease expires they can call
said ISP and ask it to be redirected to the new ip - usually at a minimal
charge.
