I am probably the last human on earth to see this, but just in case you haven't, I present to you the most amazing thing since Whiplash the burrito-delivering rodeo monkey:
Monkey on a Goat on a Cup on a Tightrope!
You may now resume your normal activities. That is IF you can. =D
Nothing much is going on here, so I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce you all to one of my office monkeys: Koko Joe.
He's been hanging out with me for a little over a year. Of course, a monkey this fine can only be obtained via the eBay worldwide marketplace. He is hand-crocheted by parties unknown of 100% acrylic. He is stuffed with an mysterious puffy stuff, prolly also acrylic. He is pantless but he does sport a fetching fez and bolero ensemble. Joe is sans tail. He's no square ape. He's the coolest little monkey in town and takes his name from this song written by the late Congressman Salvatore Bono and performed here by Mr. Ben Vaughn.

And now, for your further enjoyment, a photo essay that I like to call "The Many Moods of Koko Joe."
Until next time!
Currently there is an epic battle of conflicted feelings about this image raging inside my head.
I lack the skillz to embed this but here's the link to Three Brain's "Monkey Salad."
Enjoy!
I have another number from Elvis Costello's monkey phase.
Somehow, I let a monkey cover slip in yesterday (The Specials covering Toots & The Maytals' "Monkey Man"), so what the hell, here's Elvis doing another version of "Monkey to Man" and here are a couple of covers of "Shock the Monkey."
Speaking of loose monkeys, does anyone out there have a copy of "Green Monkeys" from Graham Parker's 1990 release Human Soul? I am ashamed that this is a piece of Parkerana that I do not have. And because such a person would be like a GOD to me. ( hint, hint )
