It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I wonder, do monkeys throw feces without discretion? or is it only theirs? Other monkeys?

If you give monkey: tiger shit, will he throw it at you?

That depends on their training. Prussian Monkeys will throw any shit their gefreiter orders them to throw at any target their gefreiter orders them to throw it at.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I want a Savannah. It'll never happen though. :(
Why not?
They are illegal in Mass. and the missus wouldn't allow it even if they weren't. 

I fucking hate monkeys.
PDH!

My dad had a pet monkey so i always wanted a pet monkey... in theory. in reality i know they're a pain in the ass and i couldn't tolerate one. Beyond that i never wanted an exotic pet.

Was your dad an organ grinder? :)

lol no. He was in the portuguese navy during the colonial wars. He found a baby monkey and kept it as a pet. Even brought it back to lisbon. He left it behind when he came to canada and it died a few years later (and or was sold he's not too sure)

Funny part is you could put any of the last five centuries in front of that number!  :D

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Cats are the first priority.  I want some beautiful purebreds. A Maine Coon to lighten the mood, a Siamese for my sins, a Persian for aesthetic contemplation, a hairless Sphynx to contemplate motality.  And then round out the gang with a half-dozen or so American shorthair mutts from the street.  All male, definitely.

Dogs are OK but I don't want much to do with them.  Maybe a Doberman in memoriam of my grandmother and to make sure that the USPS employees are really earning their "'extravagant" salaries.

Next, a bunch of peacocks in the back lot if I have it, to tip my hat to F. O'Connor.  And if I lived in Florida, definitely some flamingos.  No other birds interest me except owls, but they are illegal to have as household pets.  :(

Fish are tedious.  Ferrets are disgusting.  Gerbils, hamsters, etc. even more so.   My experience watching others is that rabbits suck as pets.

Then maybe a Xanax-addled chimpanzee with the strength and disposition of Mike Tyson...  :hmm:
