Monkey Business

I spent the majority of my day at my grandma's......yes yes, i was little red riding hood for the day. We're all there waiting for the food of course but i was kind of late so they were already eating. Everyone knows grannie's cooking isn't as good as it used to be but hey she's got early stage alzhiemers.....what can you do...at least she can still cook and in my opinion it still tasted better than other people's food.....people with full control of their mental faculties who just SUCK at cooking!!!!

So, we've all been fed and that's when the jokes start rolling in.....here comes the DISCLAIMER...you might not like our sense of humour.....it involves some recent real life disturbing news. I hadn't been up to speed on some of the recent events happening in Stamford, Connecticut. My uncle took the liberty of informing us all about the Chimpanzee attack BUT the story went different according to my uncle.

The uncle version----- this chimp was living the life....fine dining.....eating the best food....dressing himself.....it was TV star no less and then he just went all NATIVE due to jealousy and attacked it's owners visitor----ripped out the woman's eyes, tore of her jaw (inspired after watching Kong..the scene with the T Rex) and then he took off both her hands. The owner stabbed the Chimp in the back but he was unstoppable fueled by monkey power ---he ran out the house....ripped the door off the police car and took 2 bullets before he ran to his cage to die.

This is not the way the story went but my uncle was just amazed with this chimpanzee and i must admit when he told us....i died laughing!!!! But when i listened to the 911 call......it sounded so distressing.

Here's the thing.....a chimpanzee is no tabby cat...it's a wild animal. I really wonder why would you want to have a Chimp as a pet and this is why even though the story is tragic....i find it hard to be sympathetic. Apparently, the chimp was called Travis he was 14 years old and had a sapien's level CV (hilarious) which meant he could use computers and drink wine from a wine glass!!!! WTH does that mean ...oh his not a chimp darling he went to harvard!!!!!

Fact remains a CHIMP is a CHIMP and who knows why he attacked that woman....maybe he was having a bad day. The only difference is that when a wild animal has a bad day and possessing it's BRUTE STRENGTH it can cause irreparable damage. People need to stop keeping wild animal as pets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
