He was signing autographs 10 years ago.
Pretty consistent scribble too (up and down, up and down, up and down).

The graying, 150-pound Cheeta, one of six primates at the desert sanctuary 110 miles east of Los Angeles, is very active and "he still has every tooth in his head" Wish *I* could say as much.

"In his earlier years Cheeta had a penchant for beer and cigars, reportedly drinking several cold ones a day. Westfall and Karajerjian said booze and smoke have not been a part of the old chimp's life since he came into their care ten years ago." Gave up booze & smoking....wow....

Thanks, good to hear that along with Cheeta, that Boy is still with us, too.
