New under the Sun?

As we all know, there's not much new under the Sun. This saying from the Christian Bible is a truism about life but also a truism of itself and most of the other major religions in the world; as illustrated perfectly by the latest J&M cartoon today. Copies of copies of copies, fireside stories told from generation to generation and like random mutations in DNA these analogous memes also had their own twists, turns, elaboration, exaggerations, deletions and mistranslations baked in over the years of telling.
