when I was a kid, my dad really wanted a baby monkey but it was incredibly expensive and you had to have a license so he never did it

Wati... did he want the monkey before or after you were born?

I mean, did he say, I want a baby monkey but I’ll settle for a baby boy instead’? Or was it, ‘this little boy really makes me realize I would rather have a baby monkey’?

You can’t have a bunch of monkeys on the road without licenses. That would be chaos.

I remembers seeing as a child advertisements in the back of comic books for spider monkeys. I believe you could order them for $59, which I obviously didn’t have. No matter how much I begged my parents, no dice. I think I had images of training it to do my chores.

A guy I dated in the ‘70s had a wooly monkey as a pet. Dreadful mean filthy creature.

When I was a kid monkeys were legal, no license, and you could buy them out of ads in comic books. My friend’s dad had one. Not a good pet. In addition to biting, the little bastard would s##t in his hand and throw it at you.
