Did anyone else see this most shocking fly on the wall documentry last night on CH4?
Quite the most extraordinary thing one could ever wish to see.
Basicly the programme showed several couples and one or two single women who have bought infant monkeys from breeders in The States (at just a few days old, a monkey would normaly nurse it's young for about a year) and then raise them as one would a human child.The going price is around $4,000 to $5,000!
They have cupboards full of toys, birthday parties,fully fitted bedrooms,their own TV's complete with extensive DVD collections, they dress them in the most ridiculous clothing, buggies, child car seats....you name it they do it....... the list goes on and on...quite astounding and very very disturbing!
Jeeezuz...if one of my family even thought of doing that I'd kick their sorry arses from here to Christmas and back....total nutters!

Then there was the time she tried to take it to a restaurant...
How about the young couple who took the baby monkey they had just purchased to 'say goodbye' to the parents who were in acage.....the parent monkeys of course went totally ballistic and were clearly massively distressed....The idiot then said to the baby monkey... "Oh are we torturing you"? I almost leapt off the sofa as I found myself shouting at the top of my voice..."Yes of course you f'ing are"!
wtf.
Likewise when the monkey start going ape (pun intended) around the bedroom and was launching it self off of the walls at the lady's partner. I'll be surprised if he hasn't left her.
FREAKS
I'm all for assisted suicide in their case, in fact, I'd drive them to Switzerland.
Actually, I'd say the opposite. I had to STOP watching it as it was winding me up so much. Quite sad in a way that people with genuine mental health issues are allowed to take on responsibilty for another life like that. Say what you like about our own laws, but it'll never happen here fortunately.
"Nuts and sluts" as the saying goes.
I do think there are some people out there who are jealous of them. America is the most important country in the world, whether you like it or not, and the people who live there are the reason why.
Some real weirdos around that's for sure but also some really super and loyal friends who are amongst the best I have ever made.
One alarming thing though is that only 8% of the population have a passport, of which some 40% are in the military!
Did you know that George Bush Jnr had never set foot outside of The States until after he became President....now that's a frightening thought!
It may well be higher now....I remember hearing those figures some years back and time flies of course(it might have been as much as 20 years ago thinking about it!)...yes it's probably higher nowadays....but 'still' a relatively small percentage considering the population and it's economic ability (if they so wished) to travel outside of The States.
A large number of those who hold passports would be of Mexican origin and a lot of Americans up around the Northern States also have one to allow them to cross freely into Canada.
Relatively few (percentage wise that is), Americans travel outside of Mexico and Canada.....and even get a headache if they travel to Hawaii!!
I am considering starting the Monkey Liberation Through Music Party. Who is with me? Two aims, a fully intergrated European monkey orchestra and liberation for monkeys, that's what I preach preacher man.
Americans, so many of them, that there has to be some crazies amongst them. Look how many support the Yankees for a start.
DA9, if you do drive those two people to their death, can I have that geezers shirt?
Off to calm down now..........and plot how I will rule the world with hoards of melodious monkeys.
