Speaking of interesting websites, it's hard to beat HornyManatee.com. It's one of those things just destined to be created.According to the New York Times, HornyManatee was created in a panic, after Conan O'Brien ad-libbed that a "voyeur" shown on the Conan O'Brien Show was watching that website. Of course, at the time, no such website existed. But the show's bright lawyers realized as soon as taping was over that this situation would change in a heartbeat, probably not in a good way, and possibly in a way that would lead to lawsuits for the show should someone buy the domain name and post "inappropriate" material.
(Which begs the question: What material could possibly be considered "inappropriate" on a website called HornyManatee.com? "Your honor, Conan O'Brien mentioned a website called 'HornyManatee.com' in reference to an obviously disturbed voyeur, and when I went to that site I was shocked -- shocked! -- to find there were no horny manatees at all!...")
So, a few minutes and $159 later, NBC found itself the proud owner of a new website.
