note found in a mountain dew (tm) bottle
the Copyright tribunal adjuncts will get me. They will rope me to their ropey chair and dunk me in their quickened stream, attempt to drown me in their waters [lifting me from the water singing "shake it, like a polaroid picture"]. Or by not drowning I should prove myself a witch. In latter case they will seek to burn me [burning me like a 99 cent CD-R]. For it is written Is there a thing of which is said, "See this is new?" It has been already, in the ages before us. There is no remembrance, of former things, nor will there be any remembrance of latter things yet to happen among those who come after.
Yet there is copyright (and trademark) for copyright abides. Copyright is natural right and part of Natural Law and owes no man its being. "It is an unhappy business that has been given to the sons of men, to be busied with." This from the Prime adjunct of the tribunal, He is borrowing words himself, but he is grandfathered in. I have acquired great wisdom, surpassing all who were over Jersalem before me. Here he pauses, dramatically, to let the moment take effect. He examines his fingernails for cleanliness, roundness, inspecting for rough edges. He desires to cut a grand figure for this inquiry. My mind has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge, I applied my mind to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. He breaks to his own thoughts now, You have paid for nothing! Your experience turns on nought, but that which you have received from comic books, b- movies, or mott the hoople . Your top ten things bill clinton might say to paul wolfowitz, your seven pillars of wisdom, your seven lamps of architecture, your five desiderata of jurispridence, your revolutions numbered nine, belong to me!
"Shooby doo wah", I responded without thinking. But I shouldn't have said that.
