Karma Chameleon

Disclaimer:  This means not safe for work, for those of you new to the internet.

Attached are articles of incorporation filed with the Colorado Secretary of State in 2008, and a summary of the life and times of a business called "Karma 67 Studios LLC".  If you think these forms have somehow been "doctored", you are free to pull them up yourself at http://www.sos.state.co.us.  The business is delinquent, meaning that it has not paid the money to continue being listed as an incorporated business.  It has not been dissolved, which is a better way of getting defunct businesses off the books.  From internet mentions and a still active website, it may still be operating, or at least may have been accepting customers beyond the 2010 delinquent date.





Karma 67 Studios specializes in photography.  Not passport photos or class photos, but nude photography.  Depending on your upbringing, your background, or what the filters on your computer allow you to access, you may see the photographer's work as tasteful, subtle, artistic.  Much of what can be viewed without much effort on the internet is probably perfectly safe for work, probably not much different from leafing through the ESPN "Body" issue or the nudes of Robert Mapplethorpe.  Again, I caution, this opinion very much depends on your work environment - If you are an elementary school teacher or a church pastor and you want to continue believing this, I would probably not click on the "restraint equipment" link on the site's welcome page, or search much beyond the first 10 links provided by Google.



This business was registered by Robert Holcomb, the same Robert Holcomb who serves as an Estes Park town trustee, the same Robert Holcomb who lived in Littleton prior to moving to Estes Park.  A related form at the Secretary of State's website (attached) includes a signature which matches Robert Holcomb's signature on unrelated documents, including documents he has signed while serving on the town board.

I'm fairly confident I already know, if anyone bothers asking, what Bob is going to say.  Bob is going to say, "This is not my business."  And I think that is accurate, in that Bob is not the person behind the lens taking these photographs.

But Bob probably needs to answer these follow-up questions:  "Whose business is this?  And why did you register it in your name, and have its mail sent to a physical address and property you owned?"

And I'm fairly confident I already know the answers to those questions as well.
