Flying Monkey Costume

Is this what the Flying Monkeys looked like in The Wizard of Oz?

Found this bizarre image of a flying monkey costume from Germany. It comes from a list on the always unusual Cracked.com of The 30 Most Unsettling German Halloween Costumes.

NASA to start irradiating monkeys

All in the name of science, I suppose. Get your monkey-ass to Mars.

MSNBC article on why NASA will test to see how the radioactive environment of space impacts humans… or more accurately: how the radioactive environment of space impacts monkeys.

Or you could design a ship made of the stuff they put on your genital area when taking x-rays. That works, right?

Think Geek Monkey

Just placed an order at one of my favorite online stores ThinkGeek.com.

I forgot they have a monkey/brain theme.

Here's the monkey on my order confirmation:

Just got this in an email:


I don't care if you lick windows,
take the special bus or occasionally pee on yourself.
You hang in there, sunshine-you're friggin' special.
Every sixty seconds you spend angry, upset or mad,
is a full minute of happiness you'll never get back.
Today's Message of the Day is:
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly,
Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile.
Life may not be the party we hoped for,
but while we're here, we should dance.


Cute. A bit rough around the edges, but the sentiment is nice.

Absinthe maketh the hearth gwow fonder

My cousin sent me this monkey he found on an absinthe bottle.

Tired of photo-enforcement speed traps? Just do what Dave Vontesmar does as inferred by me or implied by THIS ARTICLE.

Monkey artist

It's been a while since I've updated here. A fun project like this should not go neglected for so long.
Thanks go to Rik for finding this image in his Facebook friend's photo album

Cabo San Monkey

We spent a week in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. We stopped in this hole in the wall for tequila shots. Monkey Business is an appropriate name considering the Cabo Wabo tequila we ordered tasted more like something slightly less expensive.

Blue Kong

A friend from college recently updated his Facebook with this picture. It’s a painting he did of a giant balloon gorilla that makes his home at a business not far from where I live in Brooklyn.

Here’s another painting he did of the same image.

Pink monkey baby

While visiting friends in Princeton we found a store with lots of fun imported toys. This baby pink monkey thingy was one that caught my eye.

Night-light monkey

Glad I had my camera for this one. I was at a Halloween party, and found the monkey night light in the bathroom. Luckily he didn’t fling anything. Yes, that’s right. I brought my camera into the bathroom.

Shower Monkey

Here’s a page from a book that was given to a friend at her recent baby shower. As a male monkey, I was honored to be allowed attendance.

Tiny Monkey

My Daughter found this tiny monkey in a vending machine. I love vending machines, just like Cracker Jacks used to be, you never know exactly what you'll get, but it might be something really cool.

Monkey Handstand

Here's a monkey I drew a while ago. It was posted on my Creatures & Characters Weekly website.

Reading to Monkey

Getting Monkey Ready To Read is a blog by a mom about the books she's reading to her daughter. I came across it during a Google search, as my new book is on her daughter's reading list.

Wibbly icon

This is a little Wibbly.

I found myself face to face with this fearsome monkey while messing around in Facebook. In one of the side panels they offer gifts to give to friends. This “Wibbly” was today’s gift.

Wibbly is today's new virtual gift. Visit the gift shop and send to a friend.

Surf Monkey

I spent a few days on the beach with my family. While my kids were skim-boarding, I sculpted a couple of sand creatures. Here's a Gorilla I made on Saturday, and on Friday I made a Monster. That's my son James next to the Monkey, and my son Ian is the one who's about to be bludgeoned with a shovel by some kid who was hanging around. You can see the monster and another shot of the gorilla here.

Holy monkey

I was visiting my new niece, and quickly realized she was in possession of several monkeys. Here’s one with a ring body for easy gripping.
