Yep, before I got a real, actual static IP I had a "sticky" IP that only changed once over 5 years, and they sent an email warning of it first. but most ISPs will offer a static IP upgrade for a reasonable price, even if they dont advertise it.
now I have a static IP and a giant IPV6 allocation to play with too.
