Institute of Inane Research & The Printing Press

____________________________________________________________________________________

The Institute of Inane Research appears in the pages of the GodFather of Math.
It began life in Piscataway, New Jersey, on the LCSoL campus.


In 2013, the Inane Researchers moved–lock, stock,
and quarrel–to  the northwestern headquarters of
the Oregano News Organization.

Both LCSoL chancellor, Karl Hobbes and the Institute
have been  invisible forces within the text boxes
of the GoodFather of Math.

The inaugural GoodFather page, also known as page 1003
of the GodFather, is the result of Inane research
on historically ignored little brothers.



That page dealt with the messy little brother of J. Christ.
This page deals with the messy little brother of J. Gutenberg.

Johannes' sibling added one letter to his surname.

(Unlike Little Joey Christ, Johnny Glutenberg had
a brilliant marketing agent but hold this thought!)


When Jesus Christ was crucified,
so was Little Joey Christ.

When Johannes Gutenberg
invented the printing press,
so did Johnny Glutenberg. 
  
But there is no "Johnny Gluten"
in this illustration.
He was busy in another room
playing with a rolling pin.



When the Glutenberg Pin was installed by Johannes,
the paper kept rising off the press and making cookies.
                                                                                                                                                                   

The result was not readable print
but edible biscuits.

An irate Johannes Gutenberg exclaimed
My printing press is  now a doughy mess!



Johnny Glutenberg disagreed but quickly he fled from his angered older brother.
Johnny ran away, crying to his B.M.A (Brilliant Marketing Agent).
The Glutenberg Pin was renamed the Springerle Rolling Pin.


Mr. Glutenberg lived wealthily ever after.

However, had his famous brother
not invented the  printing press,
you would not be reading this.


During the 18th Century, in the land
where  the printing press was invented
German bakers united to  Free Glutenberg
from his invisibility in the pages of history.



According to the 21st Century research at the Inane Institute, translation problems
and the onset of dyslexia resulted in that rallying cry getting stamped on packages
wherever quality cookies and biscuits are sold:
Gluten Free
