Late Night Monkeys


February 16th, 2006 - 02:21 | 3 comments

It’s two in the morning yet again. I wish I knew why sometimes I just don’t sleep. Whatever the reason, I’m here and checking out the blogs. Late-night blog browsing is always a bad idea, because every single time I write a comment at this hour I look back in the morning and find it doesn’t make sense / doesn’t say what I thought it did / isn’t what I actually think. Right now I really want to write a scathing response to comments #2 and #3 on this post, but I know it’s a bad plan. I think muppetry annoys me more when I’m tired, anyway :-)
That rule can also apply to my own posts. The above seems fine right now…no saying what it’ll be like in the morning, though.

Here’re some monkeys/chimps/apes/etc. that I like:

    I rather think comment 4 summed it up nicely!

    Hi Andrew,
    The first monkey a bonobo? I’m interested in the behaviour of bonobo’s. I know that biologically speaking, bonobos are the closest you can get to being human without being human. Bonobos look more like humans than other apes, and display many behavioral similarities as well. Bonobos and people share 98.4% of the same genetic make-up (DNA). Are you interested in bonobo’s too?
    By the way, one of my favourite authors is Richard Dawkins too.
    Some lines of you I’ve published on my website, on the first page. If you don’t like publishing that, I’ll remove it. Pls mail it to me.
    Greetings,

    Bonobos are cool - I like them a lot. I don’t think the first one has long enough arms to be a bonobo, but I could be wrong.

    Feel free to quote me wherever you like, yep - am flattered, actually! Everything I write is under a Creative Commons license - I only object to commercial use or where I’m not attributed.
