"Hope is one of the Theological virtues. This means that a continual looking forward to the eternal world is not (as some modern people think) a form of escapism or wishful thinking, but one of the things a Christian is meant to do. It does not mean that we are to leave the present world as it is."

- C.S. Lewis
A Picture Of A Monkey

No, not the dude in the hat (that's me). I mean the adorable little Cappuchin monkey perched on my shoulder eating a nacho. Her name is Abbey and I think I'm in love.

Careful De, they may be cute but they are vile, filthy little creatures.

Cute picture! And, yes, I always wanted a monkey. So, we got a Bolivian squirrel monkey. He was very cool.

"Was"?

10. B - 01/23/2006 7:42 am CST

Yes, was. We got him when he was a baby and very loving. But when he was around five years old, he started to get mean (he was going through what is equivalent to our adolescent years). We did not know how to properly take care of him anymore, so we gave him to some people who could. We miss him, but it wasn't fair for us to keep him.

If we had a million dollars, we'd buy you a monkey.

Thanks Quaid & Stroke

I've always wanted a monkey.

13. De - 01/25/2006 6:24 am CST

Ok, I just saw something that I didn't expect.

The monkey and clown shown in this previous monkey post is the SAME MONKEY I have perched on my shoulder. I recognize the clown!

What are the chances of that?

14. De - 01/25/2006 6:28 am CST

The clown was very nice too, I might add.

15. Ellen - 01/25/2006 8:05 am CST

The monkey and clown shown in this previous monkey post is the SAME MONKEY I have perched on my shoulder.

Does the monkey also sing "I get around"?

;-)
