Zoo Story...
One day an out of work mime is visiting the zoo and attempts to earn some money as a street performer. Unfortunately, as soon as he starts to draw a crowd, the zookeeper grabs him and drags him into his office.
The zookeeper explains to the mime that the zoo's most popular attraction, a gorilla, has died suddenly. The keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla until they can get another one. The mime accepts.
So the next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before crowd comes. He discovers that it's a great job. He can sleep all he wants, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime. However, eventually the crowds tire of him and he gets bored just swinging on tires.
He begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition, and dangles from the top to the lion's cage. Of course, this makes the lion furious, but the crowd loves it.
At the end of the day the zookeeper comes and gives the mime a raise for being such a good attraction as a gorilla. Well, this goes on for some time, the mime keeps taunting the lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps going up.
Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion he slips and falls. The mime is terrified.
The lion gathers itself and prepares to pounce. The mime is so scared that he begins to run round and round the cage with the lion close behind. Finally, the mime starts screaming and yelling, "Help, Help me!", but the lion is quick and pounces.
The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and which point the lion says,
"Shut up you idiot! You're gonna get us both fired!"

Here I am in all my pear-shaped luscious glory. Streaking across the board without a care in the world except for the fact that I've got too much junk in the trunk, my limbs look like they came from a package of licorice whips, and my coloring makes me look like death warmed over. And I just can't seem to do nothing with my hair today! But other than that, not a care in the world! |

I hope the animal rights people don't see that or they'll be lobbying to give animals the vote.  |

Well, MG, if they succeed in having that happen I've got the feeling that animals wouldn't do any worse than we can. They may even do better. Horse sense and all.  |

| After that, they'll be running for office. I'm not sure if I ready for the president of the USA to pee on the leg of the French president. Well, okay, the French president. |

So Ed, what you're saying is that this country may not be benefitted politically by the leadership of a jackass? Is Francis the talking mule just not capable of being our next commander and chief? Makes sense..coming straight from the horse's mouth. |

Or at least a good shagging of the leg.
I liked it when ol' George H. Bush puked on the Japanese ambassador's plate. Blech! That was funny! Don't need an animal for a president to act inapropriately |

| It was! I feel sorry for the fella, not so much the ambassador. Don't ever serve raw fish at dinner is my way of thinking and if you're going to have fish make it a good perch and catfish fry. |
