Got this rather hilarious news bit in another forum, posting it here for your reading
pleasure. :D

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,203722,00.html

Goldman Sachs Group, the blue-chip investment bank, wants a Netherlands man to change the name of a sex-themed Web site called goldmansex.com.

Of course, it won't be funny if goldmansex loses. But I can understand why if that
happens.

That's just outrageous. That's going too far. I think he has a good chance of winning.

Yikes, that's a stretch and a half. Although driving lots of traffic to Goldmansex.com. Will be an interesting one to watch. :eek3:

I would understand GoldmanSax.com, but not GoldmanSex.com. It just doesn't sound EXACTLY the same.

Please don't use the word "stretch" on a thread about a sex website ever again.

Perhaps if they win, they'll redirect all that sex traffic to their main site :)

Maybe GoldmanSex should have gone public with an IPO? I imagine Goldman Sachs would have been considerably more friendly in that case. :-)

Quite ridiculous indeed. This could create some pretty scary precedence.

I think I'll go after sex.com because I was having sex even before sex.com was first registered :)
