Review of the day for June 24, 2008

Free Monkey

Free Monkey



on Craigslist.

See ad here.

"I have a fully trained retired circus monkey that I need to find a good home for. He answers to Herman but was originally named Rafael when he was performing. This little guy's made me smile on my worst days and made me money on his best! He has all his shots and paperwork and yes... he's legal. I am moving to connecticut at the end of the month to be with the woman of my dreams and due to the state laws out East I am forced to leave him behind. Hey, It came down to the woman or the monkey and the monkey wouldn't spank me.

I'm moving at the end of July and will be interviewing all applicants until then.

Feel free to call with questions my name is Kitts 503-739-xxxx. Or you can find me at the Ojai Farmer's Market working at the pestachio stand. I'm there every weekend. SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY. Serioiusly,"
PROS:
Free!
CONS:
I would prefer a monkey that would spank me.

I read about it several years back and if I recall correctly, in order to privately own a monkey in California you need to have worked with monkeys for three years in a professional or academic setting, in addition to owning a license and having documentation for the monkey. But I don't think it was a very reliable source...

I read that it's against the law to own a monkey in California unless you are a registered zoo or museum.

That won't stop me from heading to Ojai this weekend.

@Saul,

He's worried you might spank it.

And pistachios don't grow on trees... er wait...

The REAL con is no free pestachios and that you have to be interviewed. I mean, can't I just be trusted to take a monkey and be a good owner?

@Parry,

Wow, mom would flip. I think she just has dreams of cowboy monkeys riding dachshunds.

In regards to the uncle-ship... I don't think interspecies adoptions are recognised outside the state of California, and maybe Vermont...

Your sister is thinking of adopting that thing. Would that make you the monkey's uncle?

How does someone wearing a clownsuit so demandingly ask for "serious" inquiries?...

The monkey might not have spanked him, but I guess he got tired of spanking it...
