There was this ape, a very large ape, that escaped from the zoo. It wandered into an upscale hotel, snuck past security, and, after eating some extremely spicy buffalo wings and, apparently, a cigar, it broke into room 519, shat on the floor, picked up both of the occupants, stamped their feet in its sh!t, reset one of their watches back 4 hours, knocked the mirror off of the wall and then took all of the towels and left.

Hi OneEar,
Wow, this story about an ape going ballistic in a hotel room sounds very bizarre. Could it possibly be a lame excuse for some rather scurrilous behavior on the part of the two guests? Perhaps they over imbibed and concocted this fairy tale as a way to explain their reprehensible comportment. What was the monetary damage to the hotel room? Let’s hope the ape has good liability insurance…..
Do they have your name on file at the hotel?
OneEar, Miss Litzi's commentary aside, when your hy-poo-thesis calls for an "ape", (large, furry creature) do you mean "wookie" or "grizzly"?
Hi loud but off key,
What'd you mean by "wookie" or "grizzly"? I pictured an orangutan on a rampage here, or a figment of OneEars' overstimulated imagination. It is, however, quite a cute little tale.
ML - You hypothesize scurrilous behavior and then accuse me of having an overactive imagination. That is like the black cooking implement calling the other black cooking implement "black." (ie racist).
LBok - Neither a wookie nor a grizzly is an ape. Perhaps you should visit a zoo.
Hi OneEar,
Yes, you have an overactive and vivid imagination, but you already know that. Your yarn is a wee bit over the edge, you must admit. But if I rushed to judgment about scurrilous behavior on your part, I apologize. Far be it from me to cast aspersions on your creative talents.
Would someone mind telling me what a wookie is? Maybe I’ll wish I hadn’t asked, but I think I’d really like to know.
ML - I assume that you're joking. I would recommend Chewy's page at http://rrrrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnnnnnnhhhh.blogspot.com/
Hi OneEar,
No, I wasn’t kidding and yes, I’m sorry I asked! Actually, it’s a very interesting blog site. I don’t understand much of what’s going on over there, but it’s definitely different. Thanks, I think.
OneEar,
is the statement
"Neither a wookie nor a grizzly is an ape "
one of those clever logic tricks you learned in "law School" in the "Semantics" chapter? Right after the "Finders, Keepers" concept/precedent?
Please refer to the case of Sticks & Stones v. Bones.
