The Fifty Coolest Apes of All Time, from Retrocrush.
It's an outright travesty that Gleek isn't in the Top 5.
Posted by Vidiot at February 26, 2004 02:24 PMI'd like to see a picture of a monkey eating fried chicken. That other posting made me so hungry.

Posted by: ColdChef on February 26, 2004 09:04 PMI once saw a chicken taking a pciture of a...oh never mind.
Posted by: kaf on February 26, 2004 09:56 PMPeter Tork? He couldn't hold Mickey Dolenz's pisspot.
Posted by: ColdChef on February 26, 2004 10:40 PMAnd Mike Nesmith superseded them all. Plus he was my sartorial role model.

Yeah, but Peter Tork was the cutest Monkee of all and what other Monkee can include guest appearance on Seventh Heaven in his CV.
Posted by: Valerie on February 27, 2004 07:46 AMNez is definitely the coolest. Dolenz didn't rock the toboggan with élan. Tork's mom didn't invent Liquid Paper. And prettyboy Davy Jones didn't singlehandedly invent the modern music video. ("Cruisin'", on Elephant Parts, is worth a viewing anytime.)
Posted by: Vidiot on February 27, 2004 10:14 AMMy mom saw the monkees when she was 17, I'm sure like a quivering little pent-up midwesterner. I saw the monkees on their reunion tour (sans Mike, sadly) when I was 17, standing behind a 50 year old woman who smelled of Boone's Strawberry Hill and wearing leather pants, dancing like a quivering little pent-up midwesterner.
Sadly, the Mickey Dolenze shirt that I bought got more questions of identification indicating Randy Travis than the actual man himself.
Posted by: ufez on February 27, 2004 10:49 AMI'm sure like a quivering little pent-up midwesterner.
And don't you just love dangling modifiers? I do.
Posted by: ufez on February 27, 2004 10:52 AMSure, Mike looks better in hindsight, now that we're all grown up and sophisticated. But back in the day, Peter was THE dreamboat.
Besides Bobby Sherman, heh.
Posted by: tizzie on February 27, 2004 10:58 AMAs a quivering little pent-up midwesterner, I also was madly in love with the Cowsills.
Posted by: tizzie on February 27, 2004 11:02 AMCan I break in here for a wee little announcement? It's official-my oldest simian son will be attending the Air Force Academy next year. Besides God (it goes without saying) I hereby publically thank both Senator John Edwards and Senator Elizabeth Dole for nominating him.
(Now you know why I am about to tell all you Democratic monkeys to vote Edwards. Gotta give props where due.)
Join me in sending a handful of poo airborne in honor of the occasion.
W00t!
Posted by: b*nn*f*re on February 27, 2004 01:59 PMPoor kid. Colorado Springs is one of the most boring places on earth.
Posted by: Crash on February 27, 2004 02:14 PMI'm teasing, of course.
It is boring, but that's really cool.
*flings poo*
Posted by: Crash on February 27, 2004 02:21 PMThat is good news. Three celebratory turds in the fountain, b*f*!
Posted by: Chico on February 27, 2004 03:01 PMGreat news. Congratulations!
And I hope you're not inundated with too much snow down there...my parents (just outside Raleigh) got a bunch.
Posted by: Vidiot on February 27, 2004 03:45 PMWe got more than they did. But here a good snow is a rare treat. Somebody knocked down our snowman tho. *pout*
Posted by: b*nn*f*re on February 27, 2004 04:48 PMYeah, but Peter Tork was the cutest Monkee of all
thought he was the only talented one or had previous experience at the time.
[looks in mirror] Bwwwaaaa!
A toast to Bunnyfire's son! Best wishes and all success to him. (and to his mom)
Posted by: tizzie on February 27, 2004 08:17 PMCongrats to the kiddo, funnyb. Each person that volunteers to join the military keeps me one step further from being drafted, so that can't be a bad thing. Just a year and 4 months and I'll be old enough to forget about that...but these are crazy times.
Posted by: ufez on February 27, 2004 08:27 PMSo, bf, do we get to call your son "Top Gunnyfire"?
Anyway, congratulations.
I feel safer already knowing the next stealth fighter to sneak over my home may be flown by him...
And Nesmith rools...
Posted by: wendell on February 27, 2004 10:17 PMUmmmm...what's the deal with all the penis enlargement people posting pap in the dead threads?
Posted by: ColdChef on February 27, 2004 10:35 PMThey've heard the stories from the missus, CC. She's trying really hard to be subtle.
Posted by: ufez on February 27, 2004 10:36 PMgood gracious, CC. That was so funny it hurt. in the good way.
Posted by: ufez on February 27, 2004 11:02 PMSo, bf, do we get to call your son "Top Gunnyfire"?
By all means!
I'll pass on the congrats to him-and the poo too, Stavvy.
I have it on good word that the mighty tay-hota puked and passed out an hour ago. I may do the same soon. drubk mnokyes unite!
Posted by: ufez on February 28, 2004 02:15 AMYou have nothing to lose but your chains!
(or was that "your Cheerios"????)
Posted by: tizzie on February 28, 2004 08:33 AMSounds more like "you have nothing to lose but your cookies."
Posted by: b*nn*f*re on February 28, 2004 12:34 PMSounds more like "you have nothing to lose but your cookies."
Posted by: b*nn*f*re on February 28, 2004 12:34 PMuh, bf, I thought you'd gotten over that bad case of 9622hiccups...
Posted by: wendell on February 28, 2004 04:16 PMI am.
I am.
I am.
Look at these fuckin' abs, man.
I am.
Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on February 29, 2004 09:26 AMSorry, I was drubk. I have no idea what that was supposed to mean.
Whee! *thud*
Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on March 1, 2004 06:20 AMI would like to point out that the picture above is the evil Gleek... with his marital aid of doom.
Posted by: tj on March 2, 2004 11:30 AMA 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
