You don't so much "register" a domain like that as "request" it from
the guy who controls the parent domain.

You can find out who controls the parent domain by doing a SOA (start
of authority) DNS lookup of it:

[145] root@maradi:/home/root > nslookup -q=soa denver.co.us
Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

denver.co.us
        origin = ns1.westnet.net
        mail addr = cgarner.westnet.net
        serial = 200103151
        refresh = 21600 (6H)
        retry   = 1200 (20M)
        expire  = 3600000 (5w6d16h)
        minimum ttl = 432000 (5D)
denver.co.us    nameserver = ns1.westnet.net
denver.co.us    nameserver = NS.UTAH.EDU
ns1.westnet.net internet address = 128.138.213.13
NS.UTAH.EDU     internet address = 128.110.124.120

The "mail addr" section of the DNS SOA record is supposed to show
the e-mail address of the zone administrator.  In this case, it
does show that.

Thus, the guy you need to contact is "cgarner@westnet.net" .  Although
I happen to know he works for Qwest now, cgarner@qwest.net .

Domain custodians for .US domains are permitted to charge a maintenance
fee for the DNS service and work of adding a domain for you.  I don't
know what Mr. Garner charges though.
