    I was just typing in some domain names to see if they had been taken. Then I stupidly entered a silly one and surprisingly, got the following reply: elephantsunshine.com is already registered, but these options are available: elephantsunshine.me After seeing the option, I just closed the page. It really makes me wonder why some names are already registered.

          They are a drug rehab place in Mexico specialising in heroin withdrawl:

          Not a bad name, really.

            Well, what do you know. I drive right by that place all the time. The only signs I have seen on that high-rise building have information about buying their condos. BTW, in the overview picture here[^], in the upper right hand corner you can see the Fox Studios Baja lot where they shot some of the scenes from Titanic. Soren Madsen

              I am so upset this isn't MM's home page. Maybe we can club together and buy him elephantsunshine.au?

                Great idea, but do you think he is interested in running a drug rehab clinic? :) Soren Madsen

                  You are talking about Oz here - he doesn't need euphemisms. We could get him F***ingC**t.au - the .COM version is already gone (DO NOT GO THERE)

                    Seems like they got desperate for a name and clumsily worked it into their tag line.

                      I don't know, but it may work better in Spanish.

                          When I entered the search word, I was sure that it would be Michael or at the very least some other cpian. I could rattle off a few names and you would have been on the list as well Nagy. A bit disappointing really...
