Copyrighting Your Elvis Sighting

Government bureaucrats are nothing if not thorough. Case in point: There’s an entry on the FAQ page of the United States Copyright Office that deals with the question of copyrighting your Elvis sighting.

Turns out you can’t do it, because copyright law doesn’t protect sightings or the subjects of photographs. But you can copyright your photo of an incognito Elvis for a small fee.

No word yet from the copyright office about copyrighting your Bigfoot sightings.
