Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 13 Aug 13 - 08:07 PM Good question, Bobertz! Yer average bush monkey thinks about food, other monkeys, sex, the weather, and predators. Pretty straighforward stuff, huh? But then ya got the monkeys that have joined human society, and that's where it gets real complicated. Yer modern societal monkey might be thinkin' about almost anything. Trust me on this. They are still thinkin' about other monkeys, food, the weather, and sex, of course. That goes without sayin'. They ain't thinkin' much about predators no longer, cos you don't find a lotta leopards and such downtown, see? But city monkeys also might be thinkin' about sports, politics, philosophy, auto repair, checkers, booze, Mike Hammer books, TV, the horse races, Hillary Clinton, you name it...basically anything that humans think about. And this is why some societal monkeys end up havin' emotional problems, and havin' to see a shrink. You'd never find a bush ape that had those kinda problems. Bein' "civilized" has its drawbacks, see? But those of us who've left the bush feel that the price of losin' our natural innocence is still worth the rewards, particularly where liquor, fast cars, and nifty duds are concerned. - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Little Hawk Date: 12 Aug 13 - 09:35 AM So right, Chinga, you are so right. ;-D |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chinga Date: 12 Aug 13 - 05:27 AM Little Hawk, you forgot the rest of it: "And we're going to do everything we can to make sure that something like this never happens again." Awk! |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Little Hawk Date: 11 Aug 13 - 10:30 PM (sigh) Bobert... 1. He's not a monkey. 2. He doesn't throw poo. You, sir, haven't got a leg to stand on! Or to put it another way...that dog won't hunt. ;-) And to think you would speak this way about a fine ape like Chongo after all he's done for you! Oh, it's shocking, yes it is. Just shocking. And saddening. It's like the politicians always say when asked how they feel about some recent tragedy: "I was shocked and saddened. (Awk!) I was shocked and saddened. (Awk!) Anyone got a cracker? (Awk!)" |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Bobert Date: 11 Aug 13 - 07:31 PM Rap's got it about right... Asking a poo chucking monkey for advice ain't all that advisable... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chinga Date: 11 Aug 13 - 01:40 PM Wait a sec. Let me pick myself up off the floor. There, that's better. But what I really want to know is how Tarzan knew about schnapps. I mean, how can you recognize schnapps if you don't speak German? I'm thinking that Cheetah must have been quite the drinker. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Rapparee Date: 11 Aug 13 - 10:33 AM Chong not Cheetah. Chong stupid. Chong wanted by sister Chinga. Chinga feed Chong to ants. Then this thread called "Dear Chinga." Better advice, no poo-poo throwing. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Svetlana Date: 10 Aug 13 - 05:50 PM Thank you Chongo. You are very kind. I see movie "Planet of the Apes." Gorilla like soldier, police. Orange like boss, run everything. Chimp like intelligentsia, very smart monkey. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Skivee-guesting in Date: 07 Aug 13 - 03:53 AM Hey, Chongo, could you tell my wife that I was with you last night at the "Chuckle Shack" comedy club on Rt. 15? I had a burger and fries. Got it? Thanks, I appreciate it. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Little Hawk Date: 07 Aug 13 - 12:15 AM Funny...Chongo's been sitting around for hours, just chuckling to himself and saying, "Any time now. Any time." He seems to be waiting for something to happen. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Rapparee Date: 06 Aug 13 - 07:38 PM Coulda been worse, Bobert. You coulda been in a National Guard parking lot. But I got a question for Chong: Do I cut the red wire or the blue wire to prevent the thing from blowing up? Please answer quickly as the timer is running. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Bobert Date: 06 Aug 13 - 07:19 PM Already done all that stuff, Chongz... Got anything new for me to do... No, I ain't taking up skydiving... Reminds me of my San Francisco story... Even you'll appreciate this... So back in '70 I converted my band's equipment truck, a 1949 Ford panel truck, into a camper and headed off to the left coast... Got into San Fransisco about midnight... Didn't have a clue where I was... Found what I thought was a park so I parked the truck and me and my son's mother went off to sleep in the back of the panel truck... Now this panel truck was painted up 100% hippie rock 'n roller... You get the picture??? Was awakened 'bout 7:30 the next morning with a bunch of cars around us... Looked out the window and we were in the middle of parking lot for some country club and folks were gettin' their golf clubs out... Ya' had to be there... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 06 Aug 13 - 06:30 PM Bobertz - Yeah, I guess it would suck pretty bad. How long you been havin' that problem? What I think might work for ya is to come up with a brand new role model, someone who fits yer general talents and abilities better...someone like.... Cheech Marin! Yeah, that would work. He is a lot like you, Bobertz, but he's also rich and successful, see? Give it some thought. I can't see you as Rambo at all....but I can definitely see you as Cheech Marin. Get an old VW bus, paint flowers on it, roll some 12-inch joints, get busted a coupla times, go to San Francisco or Acapulco, smoke yer brains out, shack up with spaced-out hippy girls who say "What's your sign?", camp out on the beach, and make all yer dreams come true! - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 06 Aug 13 - 06:04 PM Rap - Look, buster, don't waste people's time showin' off and askin' questions you already know the answer to just so ya can look smart! That's bad manners. Bad manners won't get you nothin' but hard knocks where I come from, see? You got a military problem? Find a military solution. That takes trainin', money, equipment, soldiers, all that kinda stuff, and you know it, so why am I wastin' time tellin' you what you already know? Hmmm? Get lost. - Chongo Svetlana - I fear for what may have happened to yer sister, and I think it's a total disgrace what is goin' on in the former Soviet Union after they was fooled and took for a ride by liars and carpetbaggers who promised everyone "freedom", but who didn't happen to mention how they was gonna rob everyone blind. What you got now is freedom for a few rich oligarchs and corrupt Mafia hoodluns to run roughshod over decent people and ruin lives. What you got is a disaster. The only thing that'll root out the criminal gangs in yer country now is another ruthless dictatorship, I'm sorry to say....because right now it's only money that talks, nothin' else matters, and money ain't got no conscience. I will join in prayers for yer sister. I sure hope she makes it back home safe somehow. - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Bobert Date: 06 Aug 13 - 05:58 PM Dear Chongz... How does it feel to wake up every morning thinkin' you are like Rambo and then you look in the mirror and discover that you are you??? Man, that must suck, right??? B;~( |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Svetlana Date: 06 Aug 13 - 01:48 PM Dear Mister Chongo, I have very big problem. Six month ago my sister answer ad for western man and I don't hear from her. I go to police and they say bad men may have fool her and take her "sex slave". I google Hot Girlz Ukraine to see if I find her and I find this trash. Everything is big joke. Pigs! How would they feel if this was his sister- or maybe daughter? I pray for my sister. Someday she come home. http://www.theguardian.com/law/2011/jul/02/odessa-ukraine-sex-trafficking-invest Bobert, Svetlana can advice because I have son and grandson. When he do good say good, when he do bad say bad. Don't get mad. One day he decide. Who knows why. One day he go in toilet, next day same, and next. That's it. Until then just clean up. This is part of life. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Rapparee Date: 06 Aug 13 - 10:40 AM Okay, I got a problem fer Chongo: Given: A beaten zone 10 meters in depth by 5 meters in width following a preliminary bombardment of 20 minutes duration by TOT 155s and HEAT by 175. Problem: What is the ammunition requirement for the above for a .30 caliber water-cooled Browning machine gun firing at an angle of 45 degrees, and when should the fire be raised to prevent collateral casualties among friendly troops and how many ammunition bearers will be needed to sustain the fire? It can be assumed that Bangalore torpedoes have cut the wire and mine clearance procedures have been successful. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Aug 13 - 10:31 PM Who ya gonna call? Chongo, that's who. He sees all. He knows all. Got a problem that needs solving? Ask the Chimp! |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 22 Jan 13 - 10:20 PM Dear S. McBride, There is no danger of you bein' much like me. Trust me on this. Now, it is a fact that I used to walk quite a bit on my knuckles back when I was a bush ape in the Old Country. But when I started hangin' around with people, which I done from about the age of 8 years old, then I learned to go more toward walkin' only on the hind legs, except when climbin' trees or walls. This way yer hands are free to use guns and other useful tools, see? And you get more respect from humans that way. You oughta try it. Just think, yer knuckles would heal up and yer hands would be a lot cleaner too. This could result in women showin' a bit more interest in you. A good motivator, ain't it? So give it a try. And lemme know how it works out, okay? - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 22 Jan 13 - 12:19 AM Dear B.H.O., Yer sufferin' from Inaugural Balls? OUCH! That is a real nasty affliction, stubborn as hell, totally drug-resistant, and it usually lasts for 4 years once you got it. Sometimes as long as 8! The only real cure is time. You gotta hunker down, grit yer teeth, and just get through it somehow. Nixon had it so bad back in 72-74 that he just couldn't take it no longer, so he went for the radical and highly risky shock treatment they call Impeachment. Scary stuff! In my opinion, it ain't worth it. Just hang in until the disease runs its course. There is still life after Inaugural Balls, and it's worth waiting for. Good luck! - Chongo |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Rapparee Date: 21 Jan 13 - 09:39 PM Dear Chonga, I am currently in DC and seem to be suffering from Inaugural Balls. Is there a cure that you know of for this condition? Thank you, B.H.O. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 21 Jan 13 - 09:39 AM Dear Abandoned, I'm not sure when you can expect the money. It depends on whether the father has any money, see? If he don't...well, ya can't get blood from a rock, right? And if he gets put in jail, then he ain't gonna earn much money there either. Does this father come from the Blind River area up in Ontario, Canada by any chance? - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Bobert Date: 21 Jan 13 - 08:21 AM Well, yeah... My bad... B;~) |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Bobert Date: 20 Jan 13 - 09:20 PM Bottom line here??? Asking a poo-chucking monkey with polymorphous perverse guilt issues for advice is like wanting yer daughter to date Charles Manson... B~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Rapparee Date: 20 Jan 13 - 09:07 PM Geez, here's another one: Dear Chongo, A couple years ago I had a baby. The father claimed it wasn't his, but we went to court and the DNA stuff proved that it was. I never did that with anyone else! So the judge said that the father had to pay me something called child support only I haven't seen a cent of it in two years. So I told the judge and she said that she'd take care of it and issued a guarantee or something for his arrest. Anyway, I thought I'd tell you and ask you when I can expect the money? Sincerely, Abandoned Momma |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 20 Jan 13 - 05:41 PM Dear Danny the Dachshund, I can relate to yer problem. I have pretty short legs too by human standards. This means that most human men tower over me, and worse than that...they look down on me! I have had to kill a few of 'em on account of that. There is no real cure for the shortness problem itself, so what we gotta do is think tall. Just remember, it ain't how tall you are, it's how tall you act! Good posture and a confident attitude can make you seem twice as tall as you really are. Now, the Newfoundlander...what I think you need to do there is get ahold of some really delicious food to get her interest. Tell her you got some fresh pork sausages you want to share with a deservin' individual such as herself. She'll definitely be interested. Put the sausages right alongside a raised deck or some similar object that is maybe 2-3 feet high. While she is eatin' the sausages, you approach from deck level and....! This should work if handled right. I heard of a tapir that managed to consummate his love with an African elephant usin' this techique! Unfortunately, though, he fell off the roof of the wildlife park's food storage enclosure at the critical moment, and broke his neck. Make sure this does not happen to you. Given the stature of the average Newfoundland, I don't think it's likely to. - Chongo *** Dear Slick Willy, Sounds like yer makin' the best of a difficult situation, Slick, same as Bill Clinton would. Nice poem too. - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Ed T Date: 20 Jan 13 - 04:18 PM Another one just came in: Chongo, People always make fun of me 'cause I am short and have tiny legs, and I could never keep up with the big boys or play in their games. Outside of being short, I have a long body, and get called hot dog, or centepede all the time. Yesterday, an old patronizing lady come up to me, singling me out from others patted my head and said "ain't he sweet,and soooo tiny, it's a wonder he can lift his leg to pee". It is starting to get to me Chongo. I am a peace-loving dog - but one of these days I am going to loose it and either bite or pee on one of these old babes. Well that is one problem, the other issue for your advice is below: I have my eye on a shapely Newfouundlander, but she is very verry big and doesn't seem to notice me much. How do you suggest I approach her? If she has an interest in "get'in wit me" , do you see any romantic or other issues with the size difference. And, BTY, I would love to have young ones with her. (and, please, none of those, "put'n me on" wise cracks) Danny the Dachshund, Oscaryerville, Kt |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: Bobert Date: 20 Jan 13 - 03:53 PM Yo, Chongz, How ya' coming with your polymorphous perverse guilt therapy sessions... Glad I ain't got that problem... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 20 Jan 13 - 03:47 PM Dear Hairy in Moncton, Yer talkin' about 2 completely different problems there. Okay, first off...the hairy back. I have had trouble with this too. It's pretty freaky wakin' up in the middle of the night with the thought that there are spiders all over yer back, ain't it? I shot the place full of holes the first time it happened, and had to pay a fine for disturbin' the peace, cos they didn't buy my story about the gorillas breakin' in. Only 1 sensible solution comes to mind. Convince yerself that it ain't spiders at all, but that it's Angelina Jolie, and she is runnin' her fingers gently over yer back hair. This works great. Trust me. (Or if she ain't yer type...just pick whoever is.) "Should I shave my pubic hair for the ladies?" Hmm. Depends on which ladies, doesn't it? You gotta choose between priorities here. Seems to me kinda unreasonable for ladies to demand that sorta thing of a man...or men to demand it of women either, but it takes all kinds, right? You gotta decide what matters the most to you, that's all. I blame the modern media for this bizarre obsession with hairless pubes that is sweepin' the nation. It's not natural, and I got no sympathy with it. - Chongo |

Subject: RE: BS: Dear Chongo - personal advice column! From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp Date: 20 Jan 13 - 03:36 PM Boy, folks, this is a fascinatin' job. It's great, aside from the few odd stalkers and nutjobs who seem to feel impelled to write me with their delusions and idle threats. Other than that, it's turnin' out to be a far better career than bein' a primate eye. Okay, I got a few more to answer. *** Dear Sugarfoot Jack, Yer plan sounds like a good one to me. Glad to be of help! - Chongo *** Dear Anonymous (with drinking problem), The reason you can't afford drinks is simple. You need a job! Go to yer local unemployment office, check the want ads, try door to door, or just wear a sandwich board that says, "Will work to get drunk!" and stand on yer local street corner. Don't expect much, though, cos I know a Baboon who tried that gambit, and mostly all he got was a lotta smart remarks from passersby. I am not gonna send you money, because I ain't in the business of disempowerin' other people by deprivin' them of the chance to find their own strength, see? Gettin' drunk is a worthy objective that I can understand. All you gotta do is take yer God-given talents and apply them, mister! Capiche? Soon you will have enough money to get absolutely blasted when the weekend rolls around, and yer life will improve by leaps and bounds (specially if you happen to be a Kangaroo). - Chongo **** Dear Cathy Ann, I can sense yer frustration. Yep, the sad thing is that most men really are jerks at that younger age you are alludin' to...or they're pretty clueless. If they like a girl, they start pesterin' her, pullin' her hair, throwin' spitwads at her, and doin' all kinds of gross stuff that makes her really mad or disgusted. Grade 6 boys mostly act like idiots! This is also true of many younger Chimps, I'm sorry to say. They hoot, screech, throw fruit (and sometimes worse stuff), jump around breakin' branches to show how tough they are...it's a wonder they ever make it to adulthood without the females hirin' some older and more experienced ape to take 'em quietly out into the bushes and introduce 'em to the Grim Reaper! Then ya got the ones who are too shy to even talk to you... But there is hope on the horizon, Cathy Ann. In time them boys will begin to mature, same as a young Chimp does. Right now they are actin' like they don't need you and like you had cooties or somethin'...but wait. In a few years all that will change, and you'll have 'em totally at yer mercy. They will bring flowers and candy, pay for yer meals and transportation, and end up on their knees beggin' you just for a kiss or a kind look! They'll go to movies they don't even like, just so you will have a good time. That's when you gotta play yer cards real careful, and find yerself one that is the pick of the crop...and that won't turn from Dr Jeckyl to Mr Hyde after a few short years of marriage. This takes careful judgement. Take note of how he treats not only YOU, but everyone else too. If he's kind and fair to other people, and not just to you, then he's a keeper. Yessir. In the meantime, you gotta defend yer rights, have a sense of humor about the situation, and be patient. Yer ship will come in. - Chongo **** Dear Ben in the Pen, Hmm. Yer case is a tricky one, Ben. Some people are actually happier "inside", and you might be one of them. The apparent freedom that lies outside the walls of the Big House, can turn out to be a trap for the unwary con if that is the case. On the other hand, you'll never know if you don't give it a try. Emergin' after 35 years could be a real shock. Things have deteriorated out here in ways you could hardly imagine. The world, frankly, has gone nuts in my opinion, and it ain't gettin' better. So you gotta think real careful about what move to make. One possibilty, though, is...you could do the good behaviour, get released, and try out bein' back in society for awhile. If it don't seem to work, just get yerself in a bit of minor trouble...nothin' too serious...just enough to get yerself back inside the joint. Yer problem will be solved and yer questions answered. I might add that whatever you do decide to do, make sure it don't hurt no one, cos a Chimp in my job can't go advocatin' antisocial crimes to other people. In other words, don't blow up City Hall or rob the bank or nothin' violent, okay? That would be overkill. For a career, you could try writin' a book about yer 35 years in the pen, spice it up real good with the wildest stories you can remember or invent, and you may soon be getting paid Big Money on the talk show circuit and get to meet buddies of mine, like Clint, Madonna, and Geraldo. - Chongo **** Dear Robert, Yeah. I think I seen you perform a few months back, and I know watcha mean. Gettin' pretty rough allright! Since yer talent in the writin' end seems to be real strong, I would move more into that, cos I don't think them vocal chords are ever gonna be young and flexible again. Mind you, William Shatner could never carry a tune AT ALL, and that hasn't stopped him makin' repeated forays into recordin', so why should yer whisky gravel voice stop you? If Tom Waites can torture the world the way he does and get away with it, NO ONE needs to feel embarrassed on account of their vocal flaws...providin' they can write...and you can. You could try goin' to the crossroads too...if you ain't already done that at some point. But if you did, well, I guess there ain't no 2nd option for that. Anyways, play to yer strengths. Write another book. Hell, the last one was absolutely great! So I figger it's time for Chronicles, Volume 2...or 3...or whatever. I know you like bein' funny with the numbers sometimes. - Chongo |
