NEW
GOO!
New Desktop -
Alrighty then! After more than a year away from the web, there's been a bit
of GUI backlog as creativity still spouts out in spurts from time to time.
So with that said, let's have a look at a whoppin' one new in the Desktop
GOO Department!
Nature - Right at
about a year ago before I jumped aboard the
iPhone train, I (Mr. Brad "Mad Man Monkie" Wiles)
had a little LG cell phone that sold its soul to Veri-Sin. And whilst I
was out at Lake Alcova, I happened to catch the sun goin' down on the hori-zon.
Low and behold, that little camera phone caught quite the spectacular view
now known as LakeSet.
Believe it or not, this photograph is completely as it was coming outta
the camera. There's been no enhancements added to this spiffy little pic...Enjoy!
Thanks Department --
To all of you...
For taking the time to stop by for a view!
THANK YOU!

Alaskan Camping Warning
In case anyone is considering doing some camping this summer, please note
the following public service announcement:
In Alaska, tourists are warned to wear tiny bells on their clothing when
hiking in bear country. The bells warn away MOST bears. Tourists are also
cautioned to watch the ground on the trail, paying particular attention to
bear droppings to be alert for the presence of Grizzly Bears. One can tell
a Grizzly dropping because it has tiny bells in it...
Smart Monkey
A guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink and, while
he's nursing it, the monkey runs wild. It jumps up on the pool table, grabs
the cue ball, sticks it in its mouth and swallows it whole. The bartender
is livid and says to the guy, "Did you see what your monkey just did?
It just swallowed the cue ball from the pool table."
"Yeah, well
I hope it kills the little turd He's been driving me nuts." The guy
finishes his drink and leaves.
Two weeks later, he comes back with the
monkey. He orders a drink and the monkey starts running wild again. The
monkey finds a grape on the bar. He grabs the grape, sticks it up his
butt, then pulls it out and eats it. The bartender is disgusted. "Did
you see what your monkey did just now? He stuck a grape up his butt, then
pulled it out and ate it."
"Well, what did you expect?" the
patron replied. "Ever
since he ate that damn cue ball, he measures everything first!"
If The Shoe Fits
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in his shoes. That
way, when you criticize him, you are a mile away from him and you have his
shoes.
A Case For The FBI
The phone rings at FBI headquarters.
"Hello?"
"Hello, is this FBI?"
"Yes. What do you want?"
"I'm calling to report my neighbor
Tom. He is hiding marijuana in his firewood."
"This will be noted."
Next day, the FBI comes over to Tom's house. They search the shed where
the firewood is kept, break every piece of wood, find no marijuana, swear
at Tom and leave.
The phone rings at Tom's house.
"Hey, Tom! Did the FBI come?"
"Yeah!"
"Did they chop your firewood?"
"Yeah they did."
"Okay, now it's your turn to call. I need
my garden plowed."

At
The Top: Two Updates In A Month? What's Up With That??? - Well,
they said it couldn't be done...The Monkie just didn't have it in him to
make another update. But that begs the question: Who are they anyway,
as there are only three visitors - me, the spambots, and Alexa!
 Regardless of the naysayers (that would be me), there's
plenty of poop to plop on the pages of pixelation and monkie sensation in
order to add an upward smile to a down trodden and economically depressed
nation. There just isn't enough fun nesting on the net or any place else
for that matter. So, with a little help from me friends (that would be YOU),
maybe we can kick off some craziness and coconut caress and zip some zing
back into this mucked up mess. Yes, you too can contribute to The Zoo simply
by swingin' over to the About page and submit anything RELEVANT to really
make a difference.
With all that said, let's check out the latest in Monkie
Business and Bananas. Other than that, lets eat, pee, and make flatulence!

Swine Fluke
This little piggy went to market.
This little piggy stayed at home.
This little piggy had roast beef.
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy went "cough, sneeze" and the whole
world’s
media went mad over the imminent destruction of the human race, and every
journalist found out that they didn't have to do too much work if they
just did "Find 'bird',
replace with 'swine'" on all their saved articles from
a year ago, er, all the way home.
PS – Anyone else awaiting the first Policeman to be diagnosed with
Swine Flu?
But Hay!
One Sunday, a cowboy went to church. When he entered, he
saw that he and the preacher were the only ones present. The preacher asked
the cowboy if he wanted him to go ahead and preach.
The cowboy said, "I'm not too smart, but if I went to feed my cattle
and only one showed up, I'd feed him."
So the minister began his sermon.
One hour passed, then two hours, then two-and-a-half hours. The preacher
finally finished and came down to ask the cowboy how he had liked the sermon.
The cowboy answered slowly, "Well, I'm not very smart, but if I went
to feed my cattle and only one showed up, I sure wouldn't feed him all the
hay."
