You want a real monkey band (unlike the costumed creeps), you have to go straight to porcelain -
Anyway, unlike Miguel (go to the comments), I give notice of my absences. I've been spending too much time lately at the diversions, to the point where they seem less like diversions than obsessions. And, since I've got quite a bit of "real" stuff to attend to, I'll be taking a self-imposed MeFi and 9622 vacation for a week or so. In the meantime, keep the faith, Monkey Brothers (and Sisters!)
Posted by yhbc at May 20, 2002 11:42 PMUm, but if there is a groundswell either here or there for another CD swap in the interim, can someone please email me and let me know? I was humbled, but challenged, by the songlists I saw, and feel the need to impose some David Alan Coe and obscure 80's stuff on y'all. Ciao!

When I was a young man
I carried my pack
And I lived the free
Life of a monkey
From the organ grinder's closet
to the dusty old sack
I dance little monkey
Jigs all over
Then in 1915 my country said "Son,
It's time to stop swinging,
Cause there's poop to be flung"
So they gave me bananas
And they gave me a gun
And they sent me away to the zoo.
I have noticed that without yhbc and Miguel this site is deader than metafilter when the server is down.
Gone monkeyfishing? (I seem to remember reading something about that somewhere...not to be confused with squirrel fishing...)

Posted by: eyeballkid on May 22, 2002 03:08 PMyhbc took a week long break, and jpoulos is on vacation. ColdChef is off getting married....
We huddle, alone and afraid, in the corner.
Posted by: kafkaesque on May 22, 2002 03:31 PMA note about posting images:
We encourage users to post images, especially those hilarous pics of monkeys
wearing dresses or programming for Linux. But posting images that reside on someone
else's server is considered by many to be bandwidth theft. Our thoughts
on the matter, along with some solutions to the problem, can be found
here. Thanks.
