**SEX.COM** Auction Cancelled **

Just saw this...seems the sex.com domain adventure continues......

The Sex.com foreclosure auction that had been scheduled for Thursday (March 18) has been cancelled. The move came after creditors of current Sex.com owner Escom, LLC filed an involuntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition against Escom today in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California (San Fernando Valley Division).

A press release says the petitioners took this action to protect their interests and to maximize value for all other creditors and equity holders. The filing will stay the public auction foreclosure proceedings which petitioners believe would have diminished the value of Escom's assets. With the fate of Sex.com now in court, it will likely be some time before the domain's future is determined.

Does this domain still have the same value? I can see Sex.com being the IT domain for type-in traffic back in the 90's and early 2k, but what about today?

My favorite scene in this movie would have to be the owners going through the Sex.com house trashing it, pulling up carpets, slashing pipes, etc before Gary moved in.

I think it was on CNN today that the original owner of the domain was the guy that started match.com.

I have a the documentary called "The Sex.com Story" from 1994 - 2003 that features Gary Kremen ... and KB and myself as "color commentators" - it's aired in the UK a ton of times and was one of the top rated shows for many years there.

I'll see if I can find it on one of my hard drives and post it. It's a great story!

It gets even more crazy.....

PETA Wants Sex.com To Promote Veggie Viagra

PETA ? People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals ? have written to law firm Windels Marx Lane & Mittendorf who represent DOM Partners LLC (owners of sex.com) to ask them to donate the domain name sex.com to PETA.

PETA want to use the domain name to educate visitors about the wonders of ?veggie Viagra?. According to PETA, people consuming meat, eggs and dairy products often suffer sexual side effects because ?the saturated fat and cholesterol in animal-derived products slow the flow of blood to all the body?s organs, not just the heart?.

?PETA wants to turn carnivores on? to vegan foods?a natural form of Viagra,? says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. ?Our offer makes everyone a winner: DOM Partners can take a huge tax write-off, and visitors to Sex.com can charge up their sex lives while saving animals? lives.?

I wonder who can predict where this domain will be in one years time and what will be on the landing page !

It's because of KB that I moved down to San Diego and lived @ the Sex.com Estate for 6 months, which Gary got back when he won the case and got the domain back!

We had some sick/great times ... it was a lot of fun to say the least
