Intellectual Property Flush

Hey, we live in a world where one must piss on a stump to show that one is PRESENT.

One must make one's MARK

The urine is typically unique and shows a special talent, lending to TRADEMARK

Garners notice which eventually requires an élan to discourage the uninitiated

With a special, inimitable set of special accommodations, processes or piled-on goodies a SERVICEMARK

Only the best can create using the best stuff to build the best product

Now the materials of fabrication are so fine that only they may bear my WATERMARK

Sure, any author has a right to the fruits of his intellectual labor. You put it out there

Automatically, it's COPYRIGHTED

But, no one cares; so if you cannot afford to have an attorney protect your natural right

At least spend the money to get a

Your Intellectual Property REGISTERED

"Oh, no inventing the float-plunger is much more valuable than writing the textbook modern applications for the Archimedes' Principle," (HUNLEY, you recall DIED WHEN HIS SUB SANK)

So, of course, the government did a lot more to see that no one argued when CRAPPER

Demanded money to flush your shit.

I Hate Hellenism, but Archemides Proves It

I think the phrase should be, "[that's] the best thing since the invention of the whistling tea kettle." Of course, this would replace the phrase "...the best thing since sliced bread," a preposterous superlative, if you ask me (and I'm assuming you did, as I write).

Then it occurred in a vision of that ancient Greek toy that's the spinning ball with two angled pipes which propel it's rotation by venting steam from water being boiled inside the hollow metal sphere. Of course, I assume that this post-dates the advent of the whistling tea kettle as it seems that a non-utilitarian toy of slightly more complex design would naturally evolve from the previously-invented whistling tea kettle (or whatever culinary application ancient Greeks may have had for boiling water without ruining the vessel). It also seem that the reverse chronological order of invention would not be true.

So, the whistling tea kettle likely pre-dates sliced bread by more than 2900 years. Sliced bread then pre-dates the advent of weaponized atomic fission by a mere thirty years. What does that say about the intellectual evolution of Humanity?

I'll let you decide.
