Monkey monkey bottle of beer - how many monkeys have we here?
I, MONKEY
Why monkeys...I dunno.
I guess growing up with Vietnam, Watergate and Nixon had some effect on me that therapy couldn't cure.
Now 30 + years later, I'm still waiting for things to take an uphill swing.
I don't see anything going uphill yet, but I have humor. Without humor, the cynicism eats away at you.
So maybe, that's why the monkey shines like a beacon for me.
To quote the famous Monkees song " I'm a believer ".
I believe that the politicians, religious leaders, the corporate movers and shakers,
the right and the left are all a bunch of big blue ass apes.
I believe money, politics, big business and organized religion
accomplishes nothing that matters.
I believe that if we don't get a handle on the problems we face in this world soon,
we are going to destroy ourselves and go straight to monkey hell.
The bad news is, there are no easy solutions like a new credible politician, ceo or messiah.
The good news is we have monkeys.
If you ever doubt that fact, grab a beer and turn on the 11:00 news.
In that spirit, I bring you....
