: Now I don't know if any one ever thought of this, but I think View
Askew made this...

Duh.

Do a /whois and you'll see that View Askew registered the domain.

(I'll make this as a post in case anyone else doesn't know how easy
this is to check).

For the less technically-inclined: Go to a search engine and ask for a
Domain Name Registration tool, look up who owns the URl. Boing!

For the super-slow:
1. http://www.networksolutions.com/cgi-bin/whois/whois
2. Type jayandsilentbob.com into the window. Press Search.
3. You see:

Registrant:
View Askew Productions (JAYANDSILENTBOB5-DOM)
P.O. Box 400
Red Bank, NJ 07701
US

Domain Name: JAYANDSILENTBOB.COM

Administrative Contact, Billing Contact:
Chen, Ming (MC2278) ming@VIEWASKEW.COM
View Askew Productions
P.O. Box 400
Red Bank, NJ 07701-0400
7328426933 (FAX) 7328423772

If they'd been smart, they'd know that they should have registered
under an assumed name... keep it fun and keep us guessing.
Placing your actual name and full address isn't 100% necessary... it
invites spam from randoms who just comb through the DNS registrar
lists to create mailing lists for sale. Hell - you can register under "Fat
Doobie, and nobody really cares so long as you pay the bills.
