"One death is a tragedy. One million deaths is a statistic."
-Kevin Federline

What do monkeys have to do with war, oppression, crime, racism and even e-mail spam? You'll see that all of the random ass-headed cruelty of the world will suddenly make perfect sense once we go Inside the Monkeysphere.

I have to say that was a lot more jovial than reading Joseph Priestley...

[Pat McCotter]

Ahhh,. yes! The discoverer of dephlogisticated air!

The MonkeySphere is one of my favorite write up of internetdom.

[Tom Sawyer]

Thanks Pat, interesting... who'd a thunk wisdom from Cracked?

I knew what the magic number for people (vs. monkeys) was going to be even before I read it because I've read most of The Tipping Point.
