Girl Scouts singing at a campfire without authorization from the music cartel -- terrible! Shame on 'em. What is this world coming to? I tell ya, [quavering voice] things are going to the dogs, mo-o-re and mo-o-re.
Wait, I just remembered: Sometimes I sing in the shower! Gadzooks, what if someone heard me? And there I'd be, practically guilty of a crime, too, because they're not always just indie tunes. I just know some of the songs are the domain of ASCAP. [EEK!]
As they say, who knows what e-v-i-l L-L-L-LURKS?
(in the hearts of men, or in the throats of men, or in the ringtones of men's phones . . .)
[gasp!]

Maybe they should argue that it isn't a public performance if the cell phone is in the user's pocket. Surely that's considered a private area or something.
Maybe we could collectively copyright the standard riiiiing riiiiiing riiiiiiing of an old-fashioned phone. We could make BILLIONS!!! |
