An old, bearded shepherd, with a crooked staff, walks up to a stone
pulpit and says . . .
And lo it came to pass that the 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. And 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.
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
his success did arouse envy. A man named Maccabia did secrete 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 only
work 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 of a service that reflects what
we are". and Dot replied, "Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators".
"Whoopee!", said Abraham. "No, YAHOO!", said Dot Com.
