Default Funny Company Names

...maybe it's been done here before, but if so I'm sorry.

Anyways, what are the funniest company names you guys have come across.

I recently got a business card from a friend I hadn't seen in a year only to find that he works at a place called "Johnson Controls"

Of course we've all heard of "BJ Services"

My co-worker just told me of a company that she used to do printing for: "Done Right Vibrators"

...list more funny company names that you have seen.

I had a maid service when I lived in Penticton. They cleaned my apartment wearing bikinis. They called themsevles Sweeping Beauties.

Sadly, I was at work while all this was happening.

Reminds me of an email forward I received quite some time ago....

Top Ten Worst Picked URLs

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

And the location on 17th Ave S.W. is in the same complex as a "Just for Lovers" store. A friend of mine got that one on ilovebacon back in the day.

I thought it was on Bow Trail, or has it moved?

That's on Bow Trail around 40th St.W I think. Just for Lovers is right beside it.

Doggy Style/Just for Lovers. Incredible.

I don't know if anything really tops Bras d'Or, Nova Scotia's most popular resturant



in fact it's so popular Jesus himself appeared at the Tim Horton's across the street (I kid you not, it was a huge deal that people saw his face on the wall, God I love the East Coast)
