It was Earth all along!
Oh you've finally made a monkey
(yes we've finally made a monkey)
Oh you've finally made a monkey
out of meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I have to say that "Escape From The Planet Of The Apes" tortures me. I can't watch it because of the ending scene with the little monkey baby, and yet I can't help watching Planet of the Apes movies.
Aaaaugh!
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 01:25 PMI hated the new one. And I still bought it on DVD. What a sucker.
Posted by: walrus on September 12, 2002 01:26 PMWalrus, no!
Not "The Movie Which Maketh Us To Hate Tim Burton"?!
How could you?
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 01:28 PMI had a moment of weakness.
I've done confession now, can I just have my Hail Marys and go?
Posted by: walrus on September 12, 2002 01:36 PMLook, I only came here to post comments on a website ... I didn't expect some kind of Spanish Inquisition ...
Posted by: walrus on September 12, 2002 01:48 PMNobody expects the --
Oh damn.
I'll come in again.
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 01:49 PMYou, Mr. Walrus, are hereby accused of the following crime:
That you did willfully and with full knowledge of the blasphemy contained therein, purchase a DVD copy of Planet Of The Apes
and not visiting 9622 enough
TWO! Two Crimes!
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 01:57 PMyour two crimes are this:
willful purchase of the heretical film "planet of the apes"
not visiting 9622 enough
and your fanatical devotion to rabbits--
amongst your crimes are such diverse elements as:

Posted by: Ufez Jones on September 12, 2002 02:06 PMNow, would that be a Muscovy or an Orpington duck?
Posted by: Ufez Jones on September 12, 2002 02:19 PMMy favorite non human character of all time will be missed, she share a deathe with Peter Tosh.
One of my favorite series, Planet of the Apes.
Though Tim Burtons was probably more like the book. The original I feel was great as Hollywood was limited to what they could do, yet having Burt Lancaster not talking at first was awsome.
Yet I would have never known if they had not done a remake, to really appreciat the original.
Does anyone remember the tv series ?(not the cartoon, that was later).
Side note the action figure for Marky Mark(there more stories there)in Planet of the Apes looks like me in the face, per my friends, yet the bod well sorry or I would be a star in my heaven.
Maybe Burt Lancaster and Charlton Heston could carry a cocoanut between them if it was tied with a string.
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 02:32 PMMaybe Burt Lancaster and Charlton Heston could carry a cocoanut between them if it was tied with a string.
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 02:33 PMNote that (2 · Burt Lancaster) + (2 · Charlton Heston) cancels out to one Raymond Burr.
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 02:34 PMconversely, maybe Burt Lancaster and Charlton Heston could shoot two swallows carrying a coconut between them if it was tied by a string.
Posted by: Ufez Jones on September 12, 2002 02:35 PMAnd Warren Zevon has terminal cancer.
Life'll kill ya.
conversely, maybe Burt Lancaster and Charlton Heston could shoot two swallows carrying a coconut between them if it was tied by a string.
Posted by: Ufez Jones on September 12, 2002 02:36 PMBurt and Charles I get confuse from their early movies, but yea the NRA man, Heston, you know old folks all look a like.
Posted by: thomcatspike on September 12, 2002 02:41 PMAnd just exactly what is WRONG with fanatical devotion to rabbits??
(uh, and can someone explain why Walrus dude is even accused of it?)
Posted by: b****fire on September 12, 2002 02:46 PMWell, rabbits don't fling poo. B***ies, on the other hand...
Posted by: romakimmy on September 12, 2002 02:50 PMThey had Raymonds on A&E, and tlked of him being successful with the same type of charcter twice, so double post he did. Even came back w/ Perry Mason movie after Iron Side.
Posted by: thomcatspike on September 12, 2002 03:38 PMYou can tell where I grew up, I suck at the name(above) game....thom cat spike, on at ike, get it right.
Posted by: thomcatspike on September 12, 2002 03:41 PMthom, i know you can type english without tying it in a knot. I have seen you do it.
so why all the macrame?
Posted by: b****fire on September 12, 2002 03:56 PMwish i could play today in the monkeyhouse, but too busy...*sigh*
Posted by: adampsyche on September 12, 2002 04:09 PMand since ebk's still out of commission, I'll go ahead and say it.
This monkey's gone to heaven
Posted by: Ufez Jones on September 12, 2002 04:31 PMWhoa! Did anyone else just have a Monkey Blackout for about an hour or so? We need a contingency plan.
Posted by: anathema on September 12, 2002 06:25 PMI made do with Tiger Shrimp, but it just wasn't the same. They don't look half as good in red vests.
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 12, 2002 06:54 PMBunny love, I just saw your note. Ay, what can I say I'm a man, and speaking for myself we suck at english, spelling and basicly were lazy so you got me, tie me up in knots.......and leave me to sit a spell so not to miss........pell.
*splat*, I'm going bowling *spalt*
Get back to work, Mr Adam Man!
And leave the coffee grounds alone!
Posted by: Office Manager on September 12, 2002 07:52 PMAll hail the Overlord, Clavdivs! Long may he reign over us!
Posted by: Miguel on September 12, 2002 10:23 PMI had a monkey blackout once. He woke up next to me in a Super 8 on a water bed strewn with empty gin bottles. You can fill in the rest...
Posted by: KevinSkomsvold on September 12, 2002 11:05 PMSounds like the monkey already beat us to that....
Posted by: MarsCrash on September 12, 2002 11:08 PMAnd now, a message from Below:
Hell with that office manager! Fire up that browser and cruise willy-nilly Adam, I command you!

"And Kafkaesque spake, saying, "First shalt thou grimace in distaste at ill-advised DVD purchases. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, flingest thou great wodges poo towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."

Posted by: adampsyche on September 13, 2002 07:05 AMIf Adam doesn't keep his paws out of the coffee grounds, there will be.
Posted by: b****fire on September 13, 2002 09:24 AMjpolous, dude, i got laid of an hour ago. and it had nothing to do with the coffee (or surfing).
Posted by: adampsyche on September 13, 2002 09:26 AMI've got a sinking feeling that he's not the only monkeylover to get liad off this month.
*keeps head low*
Posted by: tj on September 13, 2002 10:48 AMDang, Adam, I was just making a JOKE.
I'm so sorry...good thing you are in school, but are you gonna be okay?
Posted by: b****fire on September 13, 2002 10:51 AMCondolences, Adam.
As Kim Hunter's personal assistant, I can empathize.
I got a sweet gig lined up with Warren Zevon though, so things are looking up.

Posted by: dong resin on September 13, 2002 10:56 AMyeah, i am exploring options. did you know you can apply for unemployment over the Internet? may start school full time.
*assumes Diana Ross voice*
I will survive!
Posted by: adampsyche on September 13, 2002 10:57 AMTim Burton did Pee Wee's first movie, Beetlejuice, Edward scissorhands, and fuck all else, as far as I'm concerned.
It's three hit movies more than I've done, yet I still feel superior to him.
I can't explain why.
er.. not to distract from adam's tragedy.
I just felt the need to weigh in on the important Tim Burton issue.
Nighmare is overrated.
c'mon.
Whats a DVD? will play planet of the apes for tribute tonight in the ceaser home. (why do we apes fight so?) i feel homey here but I do have a reqeust if someone can help out. I tried to use the mail thingie to sign up and it dont work for me. I will try and monkey around but could the admin E mail me so i can reply back with my membership. K mailed me, said a 500$ fee is involved... (installments are fine) but i should send it to miguel and something about b fire and not uttering the word bunny? A job candle lit for adampysche ("under employed meself at the moment)
Posted by: clavdivs on September 13, 2002 11:29 AMhey, no sweat.
this really isn't a tragedy. I could look at it like that, but when one door closes, another opens. so cheesy, so true. i was fucking miserable there anyhow, but know better than to talk about it on my blog (though I did weigh in here occasionally).
remember, if we stop being silly monkeys here...well, someone has already won, i just can't figure out who.
Posted by: adampsyche on September 13, 2002 11:34 AMI thought it was Gloria Gaynor.
*excusing Adam as she knows he missed the disco era*
Posted by: b****fire on September 13, 2002 11:35 AMI don't think it's overrated at all.
I just dig it.
I guess that's because I have all the Burger King watches, and am hoping they will get more valuable.
Clav, I think your email problem is your hotmail account.
Posted by: kafkaesque on September 13, 2002 11:36 AMIn all fairness, I only saw Nightmare once, but I remember being really underwhelmed.
You're long overdue for an appearance here, mighty clavdis.
Posted by: dong resin on September 13, 2002 11:51 AMi have no doubt K. my patron is busy at moment and figured an email from admin would be easier for MEMEMEME. i can just reply.
Posted by: clavdivs on September 13, 2002 12:10 PMI have only seen have of Nightmare and am waiting with baited breath to see the second half. This is when having a TV would come in handy.
Posted by: witchstone on September 13, 2002 12:29 PM*is reminded her TV/VCR combo is broken with a rented tape of Twin Peaks stuck inside it*

Posted by: brittney on September 13, 2002 12:38 PMsome might think that i actually meant bated breath, but no, actually i meant that my breath contains bait.

Posted by: witchstone on September 13, 2002 12:42 PMOh, you can see that Tootie is the killer in that one a mile off.
Posted by: dong resin on September 13, 2002 12:49 PMI *heart* Nightmare too, Kaf. Just wanted to reprazent.
