WebWord Weblog Posting Posting Date: September 26, 2002 A to Z of WebWord -- "Can't find that old WebWord item? Maybe your memory is failing, or perhaps you can't afford to employ a chimp sidekick or monkey assistant to do your research. Then the A to Z of WebWord could be for you. Try the 'thin' version and the 'fat' version. YOU decide which one stays and which one goes."

I'm sorry, but I just have to say that picture with the monkey is just too cute! Was this a trip to the zoo or something? Posted by: Lydia on September 26, 2002 12:34 PM
Lydia, you misunderstand. Mac's parents were never potty trained, and so it was Baby Mac, too. Mac's family monkey was trained to pick up poop and fling it against the wall. (Easy training.) This way the open space of Mac's home stayed relatively clutter free. An orangutan would run a snow shovel along the edges of the walls to clean up the family's deposits. As for MadMan's monkey, well, let's just say MadMan has an overactive imagination. He saw Escape from the Planet of the Apes and felt it was his duty to save baby Milo. MadMan is no longer welcome at the Singapore Zoo.
It's NOT a f***ing monkey. It's a chimpanzee - an ape. Monkeys have tails, apes don't (among other things.) Lydia, this page has the details about the photo.
MadMan, as cute as you and the chimp are, I was actually referring to the picture of kid-type Mac and his monkey. Isn't that one of those capu-whatever monkeys? (ok, ok, I can't spell it.) Sorry I wasn't clear on that. Posted by: Lydia on September 26, 2002 03:18 PM
Well EXCUSE ME MadMan, but I can't see the f***ing chimpanzee's buttocks to ascertain whether it has a f***ing tail. Us Neanderthals here in The States -- you can identify us by how we drag our knuckles on the ground -- call chimpanzee's "chimps" and "monkeys" interchangeably. We draw distinctions only for apes, orangutans and postal carriers. We might say, "Damn dirty apes!," "What a funny orangutan!," or "You stupid box stuffer, stop giving me my neighbor's mail. Can't you read a f***ing street address?" If that's not good enough for you, I suggest you come on over to this side of the globe, yank my tail, buff my nails, take a civil service exam and show me how fast you can stuff my mailbox with unsolicited direct mail advertisements. Put up or shut up. Posted by: Jack on September 26, 2002 03:30 PM
Um... okaaaaay. Mac, I really like your link - it's very useful to have all of the URLs arranged like that! Another bookmark! Posted by: Lydia on September 26, 2002 07:25 PM
Lydia, the monkey picture is explained here I guess I should have just posted the monkey picture and left it at that. As an experiment I have applied the same type of A to Z presentation to Filberts Alertbox. View it here. Posted by: Mac on September 27, 2002 04:43 AM
I know you got it right, Mac. It was Jack who didn't. ;) Lydia, don't you love me any more? You find damn Mac cuter. That man is in his thirties. I'm much younger... :p Posted by: MadMan on September 27, 2002 01:49 PM
MadMan, I say produce some cute kid-with-animal pictures and we'll see! :) Even though I, too, am in my thirties, I actually still get told that I look like I'm in my twenties. I still get carded, dangit. Posted by: Lydia on September 27, 2002 03:23 PM
The WebWord crew have created a great A to Z page which has some great features. What I like best about it is that LOTS of stuff is visible at once... Comment from theOtherblog Posted by: Mac on September 30, 2002 04:59 AM
