Subject: How it all began
An old, bearded shepherd with a crooked staff walked up to a stone
pulpit and said, "And lo, it came to pass that the trader by the name
of Abraham did take unto himself a young wife by the name of DotCom."
And Dot Com was a comely woman, broad of shoulder and long of leg.
Indeed, she had been called Amazon Dot Com.
And she said unto Abraham, her husband, "Why doth thou travel far,
from town to town, with thy goods when thou canst trade without ever
leaving thy tent?"
And Abraham did look at her as though she were several saddle bags
short of a camel load, but simply asked, "How, Dear?"
And Dot replied, "I will place drums in all the towns and drums in
between to send messages saying what you have for sale and they will
reply telling you which hath the best price. And the sale can be made
on the drums and delivery made by Uriah's Pony Stable (UPS)."
Abraham thought long on the matter and decided he would let Dot have
her way with the drums. And the drums rang out and were an immediate
success. Abraham sold all the goods he had, at the top price, without ever
moving from his tent. But this success did arouse envy.
A man named Maccabia did secret himself inside Abraham's drum and was
accused of insider trading. And the young men did take to Dot Com's
trading as doth the greedy horsefly take to camel dung. They were
called Nomadic Ecclesiastical Rich Dominican Siderites, or NERDS for
short.
And lo, the land was so feverish with joy at the new riches and the
deafening sound of drums, that no one noticed the real riches were
going to the drum maker, one Brother William of Gates, who bought up every
drum company in the land, and indeed did insist on making drums that would
work only if you bought Brother Gates' drumsticks.
And Dot did say, "Oh, Abraham, what we have started is being taken
over by others." And as Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel (or, as
it came to be known, "eBay,") he said, "we need a name that reflects what
we are," and Dot replied, "Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators."
"Whoopee!" said Abraham.
"No, Yahoo! " said Dot Com.. .and that is how it all began.
It wasn't Al Gore after all.
