A friend of mine used to have the domain www.bertandernie.com (his name is Ernie) to run a humor list. He referred to his beer gut as "Bert". The Henson shop sicked their lawyers on him and treatened to sue, etc etc. He ended up settling by letting them buy the domain from him for about $7 more than what he paid to register it. As he says, at least he can claim that he got them to buy him a 6 pack of Sam Adams...
