It has been a mentally twisted Saturday. I could take a Rorschach Test and see unicorns in every inkblot. Hey, I could be on Obama’s economic policy team!
Saw this and for some reason, it made me think of the late, great Warren Zevon.
GORILLA IN PRAGUE ZOO ACCIDENTALLY HANGS HIMSELF
PRAGUE (AP) — A gorilla has died in the Prague Zoo after accidentally hanging himself with a climbing rope, zoo officials said Friday.
The zoo said in a statement that 5-year-old Tatu was found hanging with a rope around his neck Friday morning in a sleeping room. Spokesman Michal Stastny said all attempts to revive Tatu failed.
I guess Tatu took the autoerotic asphyxiation a little too far…
And now, may I present Warren Zevon from 1980:
My favorite lyrics:
I wish the ape a lot of success
I’m sorry my apartment’s a mess
Most of all I’m sorry if I made you blue
I’m betting the gorilla will, too
If you liked that, may I suggest that perhaps you will enjoy another favorite of mine, Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner:
It was the shapely Chimp he’d been watching. It was when he saw her chasing the Gibbon that he snapped and wrapped the rope around his neck.
Happens to the best of us…
And they complain about me being disjointed? Naturally, there are no complaints in my double-jointedness..
Hey, I’m eclectic. What can I say? I’m an International Man of Mystery just like Austin Powers.
Great minds think alike.
