Naughty or Nice...You Decide!


Monkeyboy loves the holidays. I had no idea what I was missing! Sitting there on the desk, I wondered what the hub bub was all about. The endless stream of candy, greeting cards and well wishers was somewhat of a mystery to me. Now I get it, and I am all for it.


I love Santa. Did you know he gives FREE presents?? I was going to try and get to the North Pole, but it seemed a bit of a stretch for a tropical creature such as myself. Then, I realized that I could see Santa right downtown Minneapolis (or St. Paul, or Edina or Roseville - anywhere there is a "dale"). What a wonderful man he is. Mrs Claus is quite a nice lady, too.







I have to say I was taken aback when he told me about the Naughty/Nice list! What I have done these past few months is pretty naughty to some folks. So I had a few laughs, got in a bit of trouble and pissed a few people off. What can I say? You would do the same if you had been held hostage on a reception desk for as long as I have. I just hope my shenanigans did not get me on the dreaded "naughty" list. I have repented for all my transgressions, so I sincerely hope to find some really great swag under the tree on Christmas morning.

Monkeyboy Gets Political


Well, it has been a long time since my last post friends. It has been a whirlwind of activity, and I finally have some time to connect with my adoring fans. As you can see, I made another new friend. Yes, folks, it is the Governor of our fair state, Tim Pawlenty himself. I bet you thought apes didn't give a hoot about politics. Wrong, my fair-skinned and furless friends. I followed the elections and really tried to get myself involved for the sake of all the animals out there. I marched, protested, supported, and generally campaigned my butt off. It was quite a learning experience. For instance, did you realize that Gorillas are not allowed to vote? Can you even believe that? What the heck (or WTF as you crazy kids like to say). Like we aren't one little link removed from you humans. Well, anyway, I did my best to make a difference, and met a lot of interesting people along the way. By the way, I didn't have the heart to tell my friend Tim that I am a Democrat. I hope he is not mad. Oh well, I guess we didn't have that much in common afterall.

Up next? Well, let's just say that after all of that Polical mumbo jumbo, I need to move to some more lighthearted activities. I am starting to get into the holiday spirit...
