Monkey Business
According to the old adage, if you equip enough monkeys with typewriters eventually they’ll reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. I took my laptop to the zoo a month ago and so far all they’ve managed is a couple of short stories and a second rate spy thriller featuring a Gorilla villain called Brian. I’m very disappointed. The spelling is terrible.
In desperation I organised for an English lecturer to give them a series of creative workshops, but he refused to come back after a disastrous first session in which they stole his spectacles and ate his hat.
To top it all they’ve now formed a union and gone on strike. Their spokesmonkey, a fat Silverback with spectacles is insisting that work on the Planet Of The Apes screenplay will not proceed unless I guarantee them starring roles in the movie. I bet David Attenborough doesn’t have this trouble. Cheeky monkeys.
Just a question. If Jamie Oliver, Delia Smith and Rick Stein went on
strike, would they form an onion?
It seems just like monkey business to me, nothing out of the ordinary.
