Lessons to be learnt.
Clearly, some people don't always think particularly hard when
devising domain names for their websites.

The following are real (and safe to open at work):

1. 'Who Represents?' A company database for agencies to
the rich and famous. http://www.whorepresents.com

2. Experts Exchange. A knowledge base where programmers
can exchange advice and views. http://www.expertsexchange.com

3. Looking for a pen? Look no further than Pen Island...
http://www.penisland.net

4. Need a therapist? Try here. http://www.therapistfinder.com

5. Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales.
http://www.molestationnursery.com

6. Powergen in Italy... http://www.powergenitalia.com

 
Pen Island does not appear to be a legit site but rather one that was specifically set up to spoof the domain name, in other words, whoever registered the domain name knew exactly what it resembled.
