I am often asked why I do not comment on things such as the current extra curricular goings on in Canberra, and the prosecution in Melbourne of a most unfortunate Primate. (How is it that this imposing man is called a “Primate” – he doesn’t look very Chimp like to me. He should check his family photograph album for a Chimp relation. Maybe that’s his problem?). Larry Pickering encapsulates things very well in his cartoon above, I think. Do check out his website if you feel the need to lighten up.

I am convinced that I am a Chimpanzee, slowly evolving into a human being. Mr Google insists we are related. I therefore feel I am “on probation” as it were. It is not my place to comment on the “prefects” of your system, however bizarre their behaviour. I must say, though, that it fills me with trepidation about taking that final plunge into your society. Another thing that bothers me is how I am going to find suitable footwear. My feet are designed for multi tasking, for swinging through trees, even eating bananas, not remotely like your feet. I am going to escalate my studies because it seems to me that we were designed differently and for different purposes.

Maybe those people in Canberra  are still searching for their purpose?

Gibber! Gibber!
