What REALLY needs to happen to restore law and order in NO calls for The Trunk Monkey Brigades to come clean things up.

Very funny, I will pass these round at work, just one point and I don't wish to appear pedantic, (or British,) but they are chimps, not monkeys.

OK, Who's been ripping off the Brooke Bond PG Tips adverts??
And chimpanzees are not bloody monkeys, they are APES!

But, but, but...chimp, ape, and chimpanzee don't alliterate or rhyme with the word 'trunk'. And don't tell ME it's a boot not a trunk!

The ad agency has a clickable link at the bottom right of the page. Apparently, these started out as Super Bowl commercials, though I don't know if they ever ran nationally. Locally in Chicago, perhaps. But since I never watch the Super Bowl, I wouldn't know.

The anti-theft trunk monkey is what is needed in NO, I believe.

But haven't you already got one of those in the White House? And not doing a great job there. (That's not prejudice against chimps on my part - I'm sure any of those guys would be much better.)

YEah, McGrath, the whole last five years has been an experiment to finally prove that genome or no genome, humans are still superior to apes at running the planet. Funded and engineered by the Society for Teleological Neo-Darwinism, a loose association of millioniares and billionaires who believe in Manifest Destiny.

Come on fellas. It's comic relief. Let's have a chuckle and leave it at that.

Refresh for Bobert--it'll cheer him up since he lost his identity while on the road.
