When you share the same name with the Domain King, strange things might happen.
Sharing the same name with the prolific domainer, seller of Men.com, iReport.com and Candy.com might pose a problem if you are famous yourself.

It’s definitely strange to read the name “Rick Schwartz” in movie related news without any pigeonsh*t references. And that’s because our very own Rick has nothing to do with it. 😀
He also has a Bobblehead figure made after him. He’s the king, no question about that…
Kinesis – Surely some mistake. There is no Bobblehead figure made after Rick Schwartz the film producer 😀
