Okay. I’m putting a moratorium on readers mentioning monkeys. When the first reader e-mailed me this story, it was funny (heh heh, they shot monkeys), but I was a little tired of it by the tenth e-mail. I don’t like the fact that when people see something about monkeys, they think Frank J. That’s the absolute opposite of what I want.
Also, I’m declaring an end to the cat at gunpoint caption contest. The picture is funny enough by itself, but there were a lot of absolutely hilarious entries for captions if you haven’t read through them. The one I pick as winner, though, is this one by Tuning Spork:
“Please, Miss Reno! I don’t wanna go back to Cuba!!”
Congratulations, Tuning Spork. You get the super-secret prize of no monetary value.
Sorry about no Frank Answers™ today; that was bad planning on my part. Speaking of bad planning, the Attack of the Belgians was supposed to be just one post, but I never left myself enough time to write it so I had to make it a series. The conclusion is Monday.
Woo hoo!!! Thanks for the super-secret prize of no monetary value! Extremely cool. And yer right, it’s Priceless!!
I gotta say Frank, you should have expected it… You replace your face with a photoshop monkey, you talk about monkeys a bit… people start associating you with monkeys. It’s like Dave Barry. Anytime a toilet, animal, plant, or person explodes, he’s going to get emails out the wazoo about it, because… well, that’s his thing, man.
I only have one thing to say to that.
RARR!
Whoa, there, Frank. Don’t slay the bearer of ill tidings and all that. I didn’t email you about any monkeys. I think monkeys are nasty and dirty, but as long as they leave me alone, I’ll do the same to them. Actually I feel mostly the same about hippies, except I already know they won’t leave me alone, so why should I leave them alone?
But, but, Frank, this doesn’t mean monkeys are a dead subject ( no pun intended) at IMAO does it??
It’s one of my favorite parts. I don’t know why. They just are; so illogical it’s always funny..
If monkeys are truly a think of the past here I will have to cry in to my beer(s)
Say it ain’t so Frank- tell me it was just cuz of a few of your stories about them…your ‘monkey about me’ page was the thing that made me come here !!!
ps Frank- the stuffed gorilla I was gonna include in my NTM pic just wouldn’t be relavent anymore !
No, monkeys will still appear. I was just venting.
oh, thanks g-d Frank !! I shall keep my monkey references to a minimum from now on !
Uh, Frank? You’re not going to like this.
At least they’re no longer promoting it as a health aid. But the thought that anyone ever did is…unpleasant, to say the least.
Sorry Frank..won’t happen again.
How about bunnies? Rabbit fever in Nebraska!
serenity, you were the first one to give me the story, at least.
What about buffy tufted-ear marmosets? Can we still bring them up and say their name, buffy tufted-ear marmosets, over and over again because it’s just too funny on its own?
While the monkey story is amusing, scroll down a little farther on that page to see one that is even better.

ah, those wacky wacky chinese.
Defecating on tigers…nice.
Just so that we are clear….
I am absolutely against defecating on tigers.
I would have to declare myself neutral on that issue.
Buffy-tufted ear marmosets!
Bwaaahahaha!
Sorry, I can’t help myself.
I would say the tigers took care of the whole defecating on tigers issue by themselves.
