The San Francisco Chronicle reports today that Zapata has bought Bianca's Smut Shack.

Well, maybe he ain't as nuts as I thought. He has now tapped into the two things that will make you fast money online - sex and Wall Street hype. Zapata stock went from $1.13 to $22.84 after the announcement. Even the analysts who made fun of his offer for Excite are now changing their buy recomendations.
