The Monkey Cage

Wednesday, February 27, 2008

(THIS ENTRY WAS POSTED ON THE 19TH OF MARCH, THE 27TH OF FEBRUARY WAS THE DATE IT BEGAN AS A DRAFT)

The Monkey Cage has taken an exceptionally long holiday which wasn't forseen or exactly necessary and you readers are probably sad.. or more likely devastated at the sudden discontinuation of nonsensical writings about downright stupid happenings testified by cheaply silly videos previously available here at the Cage. Well, cancel the word previously because all those are indeed FRESHLY AVAILABLE as the break turned out to be fruiful in monkey terms. Yes, the family is getting bigger...

CHAPTER ... Wait... What chapter is it? 20? What, 600? Or is it 600.00? Wait isn't that the same? Huh? Ah screw chapters...

Let's not waste time and move on to the topic today. Horseback riding.

*Possible response from a reader prior to reading the sentence above*

Reader: Horseback? As in horses? Where are the monkeys? This is the Monkey Cage, I want monkeys!

The voice who knows it all aka blogger: Patient lah... Haiyo... Are there only monkeys in the jungle? What about the guinea pigs, hamsters and koala bears?

Reader: Huh? Guinea pig and hamster got live in forest meh? Australia got monkey ah?

The annoyed voice aka blogger: Haiya, you get my point lah.. doesn't mean I say got horse means no monkey right? It's like when you go to a mamak and order milo ais. They don't just pour the iced milo on you right? Doesn't it come in a cup and with a straw for you to drink it? Same here, I mention horses, you gonna get monkeys also. By the way I think Australia got monkeys la...

Reader: Ok.. I think I get your point... But don't try to act so clever, I won't go mamak order milo ais one ok... Call me weird but I don't really...

Increasingly irritated voice aka blogger: Whatever lah you can shut up already... Out of topic... Anyway here's the clip. Enjoy dear readers who I hope aren't as annoying as the person I just 'entertained'...

Reader: Huh! I don't wanna talk to you dy...

The suddenly happy voice aka blogger: Finally, all the better... Okok lets play the clip. Drumrolls please... Drumrolls? Woi drumrolls?!

*Late drumrollsssssssssss*

Thanks to that smartass up there (who doesn't really exist, in fact created by the blogger's imagination) the nonsensical writings about the post in general has to be postponed till after the video; a first for this site. Well, it's roughly about how monkeys redefined horseback riding. Somehow it sends out the message that it actually doesn't look very right. If mothers or fathers were reading this, they probably would think twice before any horseback riding scene can ride their way into the television set. Monkeys these days... Yeah this blog is dedicated to your community but at least leave the horses alone, even the plastic ones... for the good of horses, mustangs, stallions and donkeys as well as the good of the horseracing and entertainment-involving-horses-or-horseriding-scenes businesses. People need to make money ok? Anyway, I'm sure the monkeys have learnt their lesson and that's basically what this very much delayed post is about.

Oh before I forget, you guys were promised in the previous post that the Monkey Cage would come in 2 bahasas this year (I was hoping you forget but I better keep my promise just in case...)

So lets start our brief BM lecture.

Today, we learn a very very important word in BM and in the Monkey Cage.

Monkey = MONYET in Bahasa Melayu. I repeat, MONYET, pronounced MOE (like the simpsons' character) NYET (like the nyet in monyet). Remember this, it is very important ok, Monkey = MONYET! And that's all for today's class, you are dismissed.

PS: Study what you learn from today's class when you get back ok cause you'll be randomly quizzed on it anytime in the near future *sinister laughs*

The Monkey Cage is back... What a nice feeling...
