HA!
Parrot tilts head.
Three monkeys sat in a coconut tree Discussing things as they are said to be.
Said one to the others, "Now listen, you two, There's a rumor around that can't be true "That man descended from our noble race "The very idea is a great disgrace.
"No monkey has ever deserted his wife "Starved her babies and ruined her life "And you've never known a mother monk "To leave her babies with others to bunk
"Or pass from one on to another "Till they scarcely know who is their mother.
"And another thing you'll never see, A monk build a fence round a coconut tree, And let the coconuts go to waste, Forbidding all other monks to taste; Why, if I put a fence around a tree, Starvation will force you to steal from me!
"Here's another thing a monkey won't do "Go out at night and get on a stew. "Or use a gun or club or knife "To take some other monkey's life.
"Yes, man descended, the ornery cuss "But, brother, he didn't descend from us."

FINALLY, ROCK HARD PROOF OF EVOLUTION: MONKEYS SMACK THEIR LIPS.
I thought we were related to parrots, because they do a great job of talking like humans. And sometimes make more sense.
People who are desperate to prove something will believe anything.
My children are also adept at producing plausible explanations for the current reality presented to them. Somehow, I expect more of scientific work.
Monkeys throw their feces, fence off their territory with force, and murder their rivals (with clubs), and eat their faces.
Not knocking monkeys for being monkeys, but it rather puts the lie to that little poem, doesn’t it.
I have a Sun Conure. Two years old and says nary a word. However, Wife and I have an extended new varity of clicks, clucks, squawks, whistles and head bobs.
Mr. M and I lived one summer with two Amazon parrots. They hated each other. Neither had much in the way of specific words that they knew but each chattered a lot, Arturo spoke Spanish and Far Out (yes, that was her name) spoke English. Maybe that’s why they didn’t get along.
