My, how the mighty have fallen.
Regulars readers will remember that the first TPM Enron post way back on November 29th took aim at the company’s fabulously arrogant “ask why” corporate ad campaign. That was the ad campaign featuring the ‘metalman’ commercial and the annoying computer-voice ‘why, why, why, why‘ trailer. It even had its own website, askwhy.com.

The askwhy.com domain is now, surprise surprise, being put on the auction block by an outfit called domaincollection.com.
Ouch!
I guess there’s some joke in here about living by the frictionless markets, dying by the frictionless markets.
Why, why, why, why …
