BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

CARBON COPY: 
(Monkey See. Monkey Do.)


I will admit up front taking some story telling liberties for added humor and satirical use of offensive politically incorrect language.

Also lots of plagiarism. I'm always adopting quotes, that express better, thoughts I already have. Our brains are after all, nothing more than carbon copy machines; nothing in there original.

Finding it amusing, just how little imagination us carbon copies have; how repetitive the same story lines have been throughout the history of mankind.

A writer out of loneliness is trying to communicate like a distant star sending signals. . . . We are lonesome animals. We spend our life trying to be less lonesome. One of our ancient methods is to tell a story begging the listener to say-and to feel-"Yes, that's the way it is, or at least that's the way I feel it. You're not as alone as you thought.

If you have an expression , metaphor, analogy, etc., that you use, you think is original.......try this.....GOOGLE IT! You might be surprised just how many have beaten you to it.

Bottom line: if it's online where I can access it; I'm helping myself to it. If I have inappropriately used someones material, will be removed once informed.
