Monkey Sighting for July 31st, 2007

I was reading today's Sheldon Comic when there, in the third panel. A monkey. The time was 11:51 am (CDT). Another day, another monkey.

Monkey Sighting for July 30th, 2007

I was browsing through Amazon, looking for gift ideas for my niece who is turning 6 on Friday. I was looking at a game called "Penguin Plunge" when I see the game "Tumblin' Monkeys" under the "Those Who Bought This Also Bought" section that Amazon kindly provides. The time was 12:35 pm (CDT).

Monkey Sighting for July 29, 2007

At 3:20 pm (CDT) I was scanning the Parade magazine which comes with my Sunday edition of the Wisconsin State Journal. There, on page 6 was a monkey. The story was trying to answer the question, "How Much Do Animals Really Know?"

I didn't read the article, but based on some of the questions on page 8 that Marilyn vos Savant claimed were "too funny to answer" (read stupid) the animals have to be smarter then the writers of the questions. Here's an example: "When a jack-in-the box plays "Pop Goes the Weasel," why does a clown always pop out instead?"

It is too bad vos Savant doesn't have more of a sense of humor. She could have told them anything and they would have believed it. Now that, would have been funny.

Rib Eye and Rice

This is what I had for supper Saturday night. Smoked the place up a bit with the pan searing of the steak. The rice was excellent, as was the rib eye.

I only ate about 2/3 of the meat. Will have the rest for lunch during the week.

Monkey Sighting for July 28th, 2007

It was about 9:40 am. I was channel surfing during a commercial break during the Tour de France. I spotted a monkey as I surfed by a local channel. It was a commercial for a kids show about animals.

In case you're wondering what this is about, a few years ago I read, I think in another blog, a claim that you see a monkey, in some form, every day. So I'm going to blog my sightings until I growed tired of doing so. Perhaps if I keep it up long enough I can apply for a government grant.

First Post

I have no idea what this will be about. I also realize this is the really geeky equivalent of talking to myself, since no one else is going to read this.

I do know that I haven't seen a monkey yet today.

I also know that cycling will never be more then a niche sport in the US and I like it that way.
