Thursday last, whilst dining at a fashionable eatery in New York, I had occasion to take pause. At an adjacent table, which seemed to be hosted by a chimpanzee, (subsequently informed that the chimp was Professor Emeritus Cornelius P. Rymaight of UMM [University of Marmoset Maryland]) I spotted a supposed simian relative (a human) scratching his back with a fork! The chimpanzee, er... the Professor, gave him a look of utter disdain and shock. In fact, he was so astonished and mortified that he nearly dropped a handful of mashed potatoes! Later, he was heard to remark: "Such a display of ill manners! I refuse to believe that these people are related! "
Question: Do you agree with the chimpanzee?

Jolly Woger,
You miss the point entirely dear chap --- we are "supposed' to be of the same culture :)

Puppy,
Aren't we "as one" --- I mean, after all, we do share "common ancestors". ;)
