This sounds like another Zapata to me. The only difference I see is that Zap sells fish oil and WKWG sells chicken wings and neither one has done much of anything on the internet.

Would be Internet business goes back to selling fish oil
By Andrea Orr

PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct 15 (Reuters) - Getting rich on the Internet isn't what it used to be.

Zap Corp. (NYSE:ZAP - news), the Texas fish oil and sausage casings company that back in July unveiled a bizarre plan to transform itself into ''one of the largest Internet companies in the world,'' said on Thursday it had decided to stick to fish oil after all.

The change of plans could affect the fortunes of some 31 online businesses, which Zap had intended to purchase or combine in an ambitious plan to cobble together a leading Web site.

In a brief announcement, Zap said it had re-evaluated its Internet strategy and would scrap all its acquisition plans.
