My main man with the big guns, Bruce Springsteen has a requested a permit to play Central Park during Bush's speech to the Republican National Convention. Bruce says he wants to offer "counterprogramming to the message the Republicans will be broadcasting." Good on ya, mate. Via Grambot.
Monkey U
Want to make Seppos day, mention monkeys. Want to really make his day, send him pictures of monkeys. Ok, this little monkey is named Kristi, so mom, even if I never give you grandchildren, it seems that you have a namesake. Kristi is a capuchin monkey, and goes to monkey college in Boston. At the end of a long day, the student simians relax by watching the Food Network, newscasts, cartoons and even at times wildlife network Animal Planet "although it's very scary to some of them," said Judi Zazula, executive director of Helping Hands.
Once Kristi graduates, she will move on to help disabled people. I have been suggesting to colleagues for years that I should have a monkey PA. WTF do I have to do to get a monkey helper. Would it be worth it to stick hand in copier in order to receive a monkey companion?
