Killer Chimps on the Run

Police Hunt Pack of Killer Chimps

FREETOWN, Sierra Leone (April 24) - Armed Sierra Leonean police are hunting up to 20 chimpanzees which killed a local taxi driver and injured three American visitors after they broke out of a wildlife sanctuary, officials said on Tuesday.

”Maybe the visitors panicked and threw sticks and stones. Chimps mob people. If you try and defend yourself you can get hurt,” he added. He advised any humans attacked by chimpanzees to ”be submissive, lie on the ground.”

Bad killer chimps! BAD!

(Thanks Matt!)

Get the monkey!

Our dog, Mingus, plays a game we call “Get the kitty!”, which generally consists of Mingus snapping/pawing at our cat, Chuck, until Chuck comes after him. From there it usually degenerates to Chuck lying on his back swinging an occasional paw at the dog if he comes close.

This dog plays “Get the monkey!” and the capuchin seems to play by Chuck’s rules. The monkey even looks a little like Chaz.
Curious…

(Thanks Shay.)

Whoa! Whoa! WHOA!!!

Monkey menace? Simply cook and eat them!

Fed up by an army of monkeys that has made life miserable in rural Uganda, a minister has come out with a simple solution: eat the animal!

Junior Agriculture Minister Israel Kibirige Sebunnya has warned that crops would be wiped out if the problem was not addressed. And he has suggested a novel solution to the problem.

‘I wish we could adopt the habit of eating monkeys like they do in West Africa,’ junior Agriculture Minister Israel Kibirige Sebunnya said here.

Haven’t we already established that monkeys are far to similar to us biologically to be consumed? I mean, seriously… How does this seem like a good idea to anyone?

Aw, hell naw!

Natalie Portman’s giving the love to the Simianistas?!

What the hell’s going on around here? People aren’t listening to a word I say.

Whuzzup?

Just some randomness:

  • Man, it seems like Google has de-listed the BlahStuff (or at least ranked me down a ton). My traffic has dropped by more than half starting last Wednesday. If any of y’all that get regular Google hits felt like mentioning BS in a fresh post in the hopes to re-upping my Google-juice, I’d appreciate it.
  • Hey, look! It’s Mars!
  • Monkey pictures are fun.
  • Started working on a new double desk set-up for our office on Saturday. Got some nice 3/4″ maple veneer plywood and glued some half-inch MDF on the bottom to strengthen it up a bit. Got to use my flush-cutting router bit for the first time, but then it got all cold and snowy. Gonna treat the edges with some strips of this cool laminated oak I have, so it should give a cool effect. Photos when there’s something to see.
  • My tattoo has a few spots that will require touch-up. I wonder if it’s just me, in general, or the forearm location, specifically, or a combo that cause me such problems in healing my tattoos.
  • Saw Murderball on A&E. Good stuff (except for all the Dog the Bounty Hunter commercials). Zupan’s the man.
  • The BU Terriers swept UMass and will meet UNH in the Hockey East semifinals.
  • My friends at the Exchange Tavern managed to shoehorn a dart board into their fine establishment. I’m excited. Now if only they’d update their web site.
  • What with Miracle Ed’s visit and the fresh tattoos, we’ve been out of the hot box for over a month now. Time to get back on the horse real soon. Luckily I haven’t slipped much (yet).
  • The biggest crawdaddy you’ll ever see (thanks Brandon).

Dead Monkey

Monkey throws baby into well in Orissa

As the shocked mother of the child raised an alarm after finding the monkey sitting near the well with the baby in its lap, the primate threw the baby into the well and disappeared, police said.

Oh, HELL naw!

Honestly, though, mamma made a mistake by getting all worked up and scaring the monkey. Everyone knows stealth is the most effective means of combating the Simianistas.
