Monkeys with Hammers

You can’t go wrong with a monkey with a hammer.  The possibilities are endless.

  • Politics – obvious but oddly necessary.
  • Corporate culture – see example, or just go to work
  • Music – wait, how can you tell anymore?
  • Reality Shows – who wouldn’t want to see a monkey with a hammer go berserk on American Idol?

The point is, if there ever was one, is that a monkey can get away with a lot more than we could.  And,  AND it’s as entertaining as hell.  Stick a hammer in his or her hand and the world is your oyster.  At least until the monkey hammers the snot out of it.

Stick a hammer in the hand of a normal person and all you end up with is a very bad horror movie or the evening news.

Your choice.

Back to monkeys.  I’m not a huge monkey fan, certainly not like some friends of mine.  I fail to see the appeal of a screaming, fuzzy simian that is often more coherent than some of my more distant relatives.  Envy?  Possibly.  But stick a hammer in their hand and they’re golden (or intoxicated.)

Maybe it’s the hammer . . .

I Have A Blog?

Okay, so it’s been a while.  If you follow this blog then you may be led to believe that I think there are only 10 months in the year.

Aren’t there?
