By popular demand

Here is a picture of the monkey I was playing with on Sunday. It's just from my phone, so nothing too exciting, but as anyone who has had much t do with monkeys will tell you: taking anything that might be fragile, delicate, expensive and/or breakable in any way is a bad idea.

For the record they love removing their nappies (diapers) and so we put them on backwards so they can't find the tabs. And when they get older and figure it out we give them little tape-belts - works like a charm!

That's how they're keeping this thing on me! I knew there was a trick.

In other news... I read this and thought of you (http://www.jesusmanifesto.com/2009/02/what-the-australopithecus-shows-us/). Not really because of the details, but because you are mindful of the sciences, shall we say. I'm not trying to say anything about your scoliosis or your phrenological realities! Goodness.

Peace,
Jeff
