That was creepy. I wonder if there's a protocol for talking monkeys in the CTU handbook?

Durn site wouldn't let me come back. Had to take the long route.
Cannisters have thighs?

That first comment's gonna get a reply involving Edgar, I just know it...
Posted by: JT | February 20, 2006 at 02:11 PM
Also Snork@insom / First / etc.
My first first. Yay me!
P.S. Dave, I've been trying to send a very important story to you, but I keep getting a mailbox-full message from the Herald Postmaster. Heads must roll.
Posted by: will | February 20, 2006 at 02:11 PM
that was so cool!
did anyone else notice that, after the message, the monkey's eyes follow the mouse pointer around the screen?
(OK, I admit it - I'm easily amused)
Posted by: TCK | February 20, 2006 at 02:13 PM
such an educated-sounding monkey, reminds me of some colleagues...

When I quit my job, I'm sending one of these to my boss.
Posted by: maimzini | February 20, 2006 at 02:19 PM
Ha! That's great, but are you sure you wanted us to hear from the monkeys, Dave?
Posted by: Christobol | February 20, 2006 at 02:24 PM
will - congrats on your first first.
Is this one of the script writers for this season of "24?"
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | February 20, 2006 at 02:24 PM
AWBH...She certainly isn't doing the dialogue for the terrorists; WAY too understandable.
Speaking of quitting one's job via spokesmonkey: "f*cking" is difficult to understand, but "fri*ging" comes through pretty well.
Posted by: Betsy | February 20, 2006 at 02:30 PM
That freaked me out. The eyes moved separately and pretty realistically.
Ashamed to admit I probably spent a couple of minutes before I returned to y'all.
Kewl. How long do you think Dave spent?
Posted by: Morgana | February 20, 2006 at 02:45 PM
Is that a banana in your smock or are you just glad to see me?
Posted by: Sean | February 20, 2006 at 02:46 PM
'b*ggering' comes thru loud and clear as well. Not that I tried such a thing. I'm just guessing.
Now what do I tell the boss I was working on that made me laugh so hard? I don't think inventory updates are supposed to be that funny.

sorry, some people (you know who you are) sent some HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE files and shut down the blog mailbox, will. can everyone please be aware that sending 11-MB files will effectively keep everyone from being able to send in blog mail until i find out about it and delete it?
Posted by: judi | February 20, 2006 at 02:59 PM
I'm not suggesting that anybody do this, but if you change the number at the end of the URL you can listen to messages that other people created.

Lab *snork* guess what I won't (waves to bossman) be doing for the next hour.

Posted by: wolfie | February 20, 2006 at 03:05 PM
will, congrats on your first first! Of course, *MOI* has gotten TWO (count 'em, TWO) firsts today[patting self on back] [OW! Dang, pulled a muscle!] [No, wait a sec, that can't be, I don't *HAVE* any muscles...]
Posted by: Mad Soapboxer | February 20, 2006 at 03:14 PM
Judi: Thanks for fixin' the email. In the future These guys can help cut down on giant emails. At least, nobody'll send 'em twice.
Posted by: will | February 20, 2006 at 03:18 PM
Lab,
Great! I'm getting nothing done. Try 3841087!!!
Posted by: Fumbling Father | February 20, 2006 at 03:19 PM
Someone made the monkey say 'you sexy bast*rd'
lmsao!
Posted by: wolfie | February 20, 2006 at 03:20 PM
Mad: Thanks, and likewise. Thanks also to Annie WBH. I'd like to thank the academy, my parents, Dave, Judi, etc, etc.
Also: Snork @ Fumbling Father's find.
Posted by: will | February 20, 2006 at 03:22 PM
thanks lab!! 3841050 is my favorite so far.
Posted by: crossgirl | February 20, 2006 at 03:23 PM
Oh my.
3727381.
Do not open if you aren't wearing headphones. Or are at work. Or in the hearing range of anyone else. Or ever really. Eeek!
Posted by: wolfie | February 20, 2006 at 03:27 PM
Lab: No studying today, thanks to you...
# 3841094 is pretty good. Jeff and Ron, you're busted.
Posted by: will | February 20, 2006 at 03:29 PM
You know, I did some consulting for careerbuilder, back in the day...and I don't think they had nearly as much idle time on their hands.
But this is perfect for sending the link to my new personal site to my friends, since the URL is PLEASEStoptheMonkeys.com
Nothing there but a copy of my old personal site now, though.
But I came up with a pretty funny monk-e-mail message relating to it:
My monk-e-mail for PLEASEStoptheMonkeys.com

sorry judi - guess I'm gonna have to stop sendin' you such hi quality porn
Posted by: TCK | February 20, 2006 at 03:35 PM
Fumbling Father you are so right, 3841087 is the best so far. And squeeky clean too!
Posted by: Morgana | February 20, 2006 at 03:42 PM
Love your accent Kaz... did you really work with those monkeys at CareerBuilder?
Posted by: Kathy P. | February 20, 2006 at 03:51 PM
tck: just send it to my personal email, wouldja please?

Six-Twelve-Eightteen-24, we've got a message for President Eleanor.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO ALL (ESPECIALLY ALFRED):
A message from dave you won't want to miss
http://www.careerbuilder.com/monk-e-mail/?mid=3863964
Also, D. Leanord Barry's glasses are especially boss.
Sorry, I posted on a wrong (ealier) thread.
Posted by: adonis | February 20, 2006 at 08:02 PM
Not to highjack this tread about 24 to talk about 24 but how much trouble do you think Jack is in for not killing off children at the Mall. After all both the Hobbit and Prez Wieene wanted them dead.
Posted by: Camera Guy | February 20, 2006 at 08:19 PM
On the third try... AWESOME!!!
Posted by: Carolina H | February 20, 2006 at 08:40 PM
I got it to say Dave Dave Bo Bave, Banana Fana Fo Fave, Dave!
Trust me, it was hilarious.
Posted by: Wavey | February 20, 2006 at 09:16 PM
I lament. Truly.
I focused on the irony of the talking ape trapped in a role of "monkey", expressing the futility felt by the common man in a world which doesn't appreciate him and his bad life choices.
YOU, on the other hand...and I mean "you" plural...play to the lowest common denominator, going for shock value and potty humor.
And yet, without a doubt, in a poll I'd come in dead last. Damn the marketplace of ideas! DAMN IT TO HECK!
Where are the government censors when you need 'em.
I'm applying for my NEA grant, tomorrow.
Posted by: Kaz | February 20, 2006 at 09:19 PM
So Dave hits upon the ingenious idea of having a Simian remind everyone to watch 24 tonight. He probably got that idea after reading this.
Posted by: Stupendous Man | February 20, 2006 at 09:27 PM
I don't understand this obsession with 24.
Then again, I have never seen it.
I did come up with one last bit of monkey irony. Perhaps nostalgia will help:
Hey hey
Posted by: Kaz | February 20, 2006 at 09:32 PM
hey, why is my "hey hey" link black? Nobody's gonna know to click on it!

Posted by: Kaz | February 20, 2006 at 09:34 PM
We're talking about monkeys tonight?
Posted by: Glow | February 20, 2006 at 09:37 PM
I have my own special message
http://www.careerbuilder.com/monk-e-mail/?mid=3869862
Forgive me. I couldn't remember the words.
Posted by: Alfred | February 20, 2006 at 09:39 PM
What's the difference between monkeys and hobbits? They both have hairy feet, right?
Posted by: Glow | February 20, 2006 at 09:48 PM
*zips in LTTG, but here nevertheless*
Blue, thx for the monkey b-day message. I'd send you a "thank you" e-mail, but i'm afraid of you now....:-)
just kidding
Posted by: Eleanor | February 20, 2006 at 09:55 PM
Well, Dave, that was the Best Episode Evah, dude, and I'm sorry you weren't here to share the fun of Cleavage and Andrea being more kick-ass than the men! Except for Jack, of course. Jack did a choke hold on Curtis, shot two bad guys down from a thousand feet away, with one shot each, transferred top secret DOD files with his useless Blackberry, AND knew names of people on the board of some big corporation even though he's been away for 18 months. Next week--we see the Meltdown of Da Hobbit.
Posted by: Glow | February 20, 2006 at 10:06 PM
and mr taser making a cameo next week!

Thanks Adonis. Very kind of you.
Posted by: Alfred | February 21, 2006 at 01:06 AM
That silly wife of President Weiner McTool. Doesn't she know she's in grave danger by going in the motorcade with President Subaru and Mrs. Subaru? Maybe she's just crazy. Oh wait...
Also, Samwise McGill is starting to lose it. Should be interesting when Curtis takes a stand against him next week. I'm hoping somebody will be thrown through a wall of glass, but perhaps it's just a fool's dream...
