Sometimes websites have URLs that inadvertently carry a double meaning.

Take a look:


1. A site called ‘Who Represents‘ where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity. Their domain name… wait for it… is
www.whorepresents.com

2. Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views at
www.expertsexchange.com

3. Looking for a pen? Look no further than Pen Island at
www.penisland.net

4. Need a therapist? Try Therapist Finder at
www.therapistfinder.com

5. Then of course, there’s the Italian Power Generator company…
www.powergenitalia.com

6. And now, we have the Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales:
www.molestationnursery.com

7. If you’re looking for computer software, there’s always
www.ipanywhere.com

8. Welcome to the First Cumming Methodist Church. Their website is
www.cummingfirst.com

9. Then, of course, there’s these brainless art designers, and their whacky website:
www.speedofart.com

10. Want to holiday in Lake Tahoe? Try their brochure website at
www.gotahoe.com

I just returned from a trip to the SoCal area--had a nice visit with Mike , KO6NM. As I left the Burbank airport to head over his direction I passed through an area where all of the street signs said "NOHO". At first I figured they were real quick to be politically correct after the recent Imus incident. Then it finally dawned on me that it stood for "North Hollywood"--we're kinda slow here in Minnesota.
