McNugget EMERGENCY!

Apparently there was a McNugget Emergency at a McDonald's in Florida where they ran out of McNuggets. That is sad especially when you get the McNugget Commercial in your head:

Anyway one customer was so upset that she called 911 - I like McNuggets as much as the next monkey, but I think she went a bit too far - its not like the Hamburgler was there!

Thanks Robin for bringing us this story!

Monday Monkey News - MonkeyGate

Hi everybody - It seems that the trouble with Travis has caused an uproar in Congress. Certain people have decided to take this opportunity to outlaw the transportation of monkeys (and other primates) across state lines!

see - http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/111_HR_80.html

Just because one chimpanzee went bananas it doesn't mean that all primates should be punished. It seems to me that maybe foul play or something like that was involved. The owner gave Travis Xanex and Tea before the incident. Regardless - should all monkeys be punished just because of a bad incident?

I'm not criticizing humans, but every time I watch the news there is at least one story about humans killing other humans and other bad things. Should we pass a law like the "Captive Primate Safety Act" aka the "Monkey Bite Bill", and prevent humans from crossing state borders?

Also as Representative Rob Bishop from Utah said - how would a law against monkeys traveling across borders prevent an incident like the one involving Travis? He didn't cross any borders to go crazy! Sounds like some monkey-hating people decided to use this as an opportunity to punish all monkeys. Sounds like a cover up, conspiracy - we need some investigations! Maybe Fred is behind this? Someone get Woodward and Bernstein on this MonkeyGate scandal.

I enjoy traveling across borders and seeing the world -and reporting back to you my friends! Hopefully we can stop this madness and restore monkey rights and monkey equality!

I will be writing letters to Rob Bishop-R of Utah, Earl Blumenauer-D of Oregon, and Madeleine Bordallo-D of Guam (preview: Thumbs UP to Rob and Thumbs DOWN to the other two!).

Also Thumbs UP! to Jon Stewart of the Daily Show (see below) who brought this to the attention of the hip kids. - Thanks Jon and Rob!

UPDATE: Travis Shooting

" The cartoon in Wednesday's Post by Sean Delonas shows two police officers, one with a smoking gun, standing over the body of a bullet-riddled chimp. The caption reads: "They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill." "

OH NO! More News about Travis - and now this cartoon. This doesn't seem good for chimpanzees and monkeys. I'm still waiting for details on what really happened and what caused this tragedy. I'm happy to report that a full investigation has been launched.
