After over 70 years in America they are still called “African” green monkeys. How many generations need to live in the country before they become American?
There is also a colony of Rhesus Macaque monkeys that have lived near Silver Springs Florida since 1939, when the original members were released after being used to film a Tarzan movie, They have been there so long that they have actually become something of a minor tourist attraction in the Silver Springs park
eromlig where are you? Since you’ve been back from your cruise you’ve posted some of your best ones ever. I depend on you, Steve, Joe & a few others for my humor fix! I need something to take my mind off my back & shoulder pain today. Humors better than Hydro’s!

How many generations of escaped-from-zoo green monkeys would that be? Three, four, five?

“Krzywy Domek,” translated from Polish, means “crooked house.”

Sheesh, M Manoj, you could’ve just borrowed a chain from a neighbor if you really needed one that bad.

each generation of monkeys is probably breeding by the time they are 3 years old.

Putting a bounty on those monkeys would get rid of them…

No wonder that Polish building looks like it’s collapsing. It doesn’t have any vowels to hold it up.

The Domek building was constructed across the street from a local bar. It has been responsible for a rise in sobriety…

I wonder how long it took to carve that chain? I wouldn’t have that much patience.
