In the words of our grandfathers:
Right on!

....there would be much rejoicing in Compton.
That is so silly.
Posted by: tizzie on October 31, 2003 09:56 AM...I'd monkey in the mooooorning
I'd monkey in the eeeeevening
Aaaaaall over this laaaaaand....
I have a monkey this afternoon, that the species-hood of simians will become a reality!
(oh, i'm *really* goin' to hell now.)
Posted by: notsnot on October 31, 2003 10:32 AMIf I had a monkey, I would start a deathcult with my little friend as the leader. He would rule benevolently and charismatically over his little brood, whose ranks would soon swell to over five hundred. Then, at a prearranged time, the pilgrims would sing together in one voice, the bees would be released, and all would perish except for me and Bobo.
After, we'd go through their pockets for change.
But wait! Bobo has caught me in an elaborate double-bluff! Outsmarted, I die, I die!

Plot #76201.
Posted by: tizzie on October 31, 2003 12:33 PMKaf, I will kill Bobo, should such a thing ever come to pass. He'll won't live to enjoy the poison fruits of his treachery, I promise you.

BO0-bye
If I had a monkey. . .
I'd photograph her:
- taking her first steps
- wearing cute little dresses
- playing with her dolls
- holding hands with her monkey brother while walking in the gardens
- posing in her bunny rabbit outfit for halloween
eating a banana
- getting on the bus for her first day of school
- graduating high school
- going to the prom
- graduating college
- playing in her first rock band
- acting in her first play
- walking down the aisle in her monkey wedding dress and veil
You get the idea.

Did that sharp intake of breath mean that tapes are verboten in the great CD swap? I really want to share my amazing music mixing abilities but I just don't have the technology.
You guys certainly wouldn't refuse a tape from someone who really, really wants to participate, would you?
Fes. Help me out htere.
Posted by: Valerie on October 31, 2003 09:11 PMTape? You mean like analog? Why don't you just call your swapees and hum the tunes for them?
Posted by: ana on October 31, 2003 10:04 PMHmmm. That may have come across quite snarky. Sorry, Valerie. I was just monkeying with ya. ;-)

Posted by: ana on October 31, 2003 10:07 PMI, for one, would really love a good mix tape. I have about a hundred laying around the house, and when I want a nice trip back to yesteryear I just pop one in. I never know what is going to be on the tape, but it always makes me say "Goddamn it! Why did I sell that CD back to the used record store?" I'm willing to trade a CD for a mix tape any ole day.
Posted by: Mars Crash on November 1, 2003 02:18 AMOh, sorry! I totally drifted off of the theme of the thread. The new guy at work (golf buddy of the owner/total jackass) actually owns a marmoset. I asked him what it was like. He said, and this is an actual quote mind you, "You spend a lot of time scrubbing monkey shit out of the drapes."
Posted by: Mars Crash on November 1, 2003 02:29 AMWell, Val, I have been looking for an excuse to buy an O.G. '79 model Sony Walkman the next time I see one in Value Village.
Mars: Sounds like *somebody* shoulda bought the brown drapes.
And so it was, we were walking down the road, and we ran into a shiny demon, wearing a Brooks Brothers suit. And he said unto us:
"My name is Fester. Play me the greatest mix CD in the world... or I'll EAT YOUR SOUL."
This CD I'm burning right now isn't the greatest mix CD in the world. This is just a tribute.
(And no, it doesn't actually contain any Tenacious D.)
Posted by: arto on November 1, 2003 07:19 AMAdampsyche, I need an intervention. I've watched 10 episodes of the tawdry adventures of Tony and Carmela in the past 48 hours, and I'm about to go get the last disc if Blockbuster's still open.
I'm glad Ralphie lost his head. Bastard.
Posted by: tizzie on November 1, 2003 08:30 PMTizzie, that reminds me of when, about a month ago, I bought the Alias DVD set on a whim (having never seen the show before that) after work on Friday and spent the whole weekend watching the scantily clad escapades of Sydney leading to frantically downloading the season two episodes before it even got dark Sunday night because I'd finished the whole damn set.
There should be a support group...
Posted by: Cyrano on November 1, 2003 09:07 PMIS A TAPE SOMETHING I WOULD NEED A TAPE PLAYER TO APPRECIATE? BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE A TAPE PLAYER.
[The preceding is a total lie. Mr_crash_davis not only has a tape player, but he has yet to install a CD player in any of his automobiles and this is ONLY able to listen to tapes in them.]
Posted by: Crash on November 2, 2003 01:43 AMAll right, who's responsible for this?
I think that's the Marquessa de Readymade's territory.
Posted by: Baron von Fes on the Great Plains on November 3, 2003 10:24 AMI deny all knowledge of such macaques or damages that said animals would perpetrate upon the government were there to be such monkeys in existance (which as yet remains unproven to me). I am utterly appalled that my name would be attached to such devious and nefarious activities, clearly the work of a diabolical and perverted mind.

Posted by: Marquessa de Readymade on November 3, 2003 05:53 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.
