read this and laugh, the history of the internet,  joe.
 In ancient Israel, it came to pass that a trader by the name of  Abraham
Com,
 did take unto himself a young wife by the name of Dot. And Dot Com was a
comely
woman, broad of shoulder and long of leg.
Indeed, she had been called Amazon Dot Com.
She said unto Abraham, her husband, "Why doth thou travel far from town to
town with thy goods when thou can 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 said, "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 and decided he would let Dot have her way with the
drums. 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 man 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 that 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 with
Brother Gates' drumheads and drumsticks.
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."
"YAHOO", said Abraham. And that is how it all began, It wasn't Al Gore after
all.
