Monkey lost....AND FOUND

A lot of people find things outside. The Pioneers found Utah, Columbus found the not-indies, lots of people have found ticks, and so on. In fact, look at this startling graph.

So it's not exciting to find things outside. This is hardly news. But what if someone were to find something OUTSIDE that is usually found INSIDE? Well, now that would be something. That very thing happened just the other day while I was outside. What did I find? What example of insideia did I encounter? Behold!


It's a filthy little monkey playing a cello. Why someone would have ever had this thing inside in the first place is beyond me, but I'm not here to figure people out. All I know is that this thing used to be inside, but was most certainly found outside.

And so, in closing, aren't we all like that little cello-playing monkey in some way or another? Maybe we are filthy, or maybe we are missing the stick part of the cello. Maybe our feet got snapped off when a farmer plowed his field. Makes you think.

Nah, it doesn't.

The "other" area is that area where you can't use christmas lights. For indoor/outdoor use only...
