Remember how they got a thousand monkeys to write on a thousand typewriters for a thousand years to try and write the great novels of the world? I was one of those monkeys.
It was my job to write The Life of Pi. I got there – after 432 years.
Despite a lifetime of service and getting bad arthritis in all my fingers and wrists, they fired me because I accidentally spelled Pi as Pie all the way through.
Jerks.

One follower? No. Make that two. As in me. I am not sure why… Must have been that winning comment.
How’s it feel to be #2 to me Becca?
I love this. Bring on the buddy battle! Two followers enter, one follower leaves!
Brother Jon. Don’t forget that I renamed Long Jons for you. Don’t forget your roots man…
Sorry…I got ahead of myself…
No! Go back go back!
All my comments are winners. You will see, you will learn, you will love, you will yearn (for me)
I already do Monkey, I already do.
GOOD!
I was number three!! Number three!! And then my computer crashed.
And I get extra points for commenting on the first blog post!!
Yay! One point to you and I will be keeping tabs through the year! Ook-ook!
Don’t worry – 3 is 2 + 1 which makes you as good as the others combined! Eek-eek!
Hmm…. so I was 12th or something. That’s a good number too. I guess. I hope.
Hmpf.
Did you say… 12th?!! CONGRATULATIONS! You have won our ‘lucky dozen’ door prize – a bag of pretzels! Collect it from Doris on your way out.
Awww, Monk Monkey, you made my day.

Bummer, when most any word processor could have converted all those Pies into Pis with the touch of a couple keys. But then, you had to go and use a typewriter… guess they made the right choice…
THAT’S JUST WHAT THEY GAVE US!! 😦
Someone who has shaved the top of his head, sings chants and likes bananas and they fire you cos you wrote pie! 😯
Life of Pie any day sounds better and more interesting and it rhymes with Fun and weekend.
It must be why I was always hungry as I wrote. And yes – it made for a terriic story!!!
Hey, Monk Monkey, you cute little shaved-head primate. I swear, I’m gonna pinch those cheeks for real one day. Anyway! There is this awesome card game coming out! You have to check it out: Elevenses – The Card Game of Morning Tea. http://kck.st/1cDrnV3
I have an in with the creator, and I’ll put in a good word for you. I think he would like a primate to play the game with. Anyway! Would you believe I have a royalty check coming from Germany?! I know! How cool is that! The goal is $12,000 for the game, and I’m already in once, but I’m going in again as soon as that royalty check arrives. They can have it all. 😉 You should chip in, too. XOXOXOXO
Hmm…looks somewhat interesting…ill think about it but that creator guy should thank you very very much for that sweet gesture. Wow! German money! Seriously WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5:51 pm there, eh? It’s 2:51 am here. I really should go to bed, but I’m writing and all fired up! Thanks for letting me promo that cool game on your about page. It’s exciting that so many good things are happening right now. See you tomorrow!!
Good night sweet princess…dream of tea and bickies…
