Back in the 70's when I was young, there was a cute gal who worked for a travel company that would deliver airline tickets to our payroll dept for our plant executives.
I asked her out for lunch one day and while at the restaurant, she said she had a pet monkey at home......I don't know what kind nor did I care, I never asked her out again. I don't like monkeys of any kind and anyone who would own one has to be just as creepy........
What makes people think it is okay to keep a wild animal in their home; one who can tear them to shreds?
It boggles the mind. Anyone who would do this, is uninformed or has given leave of their senses.
I hope she got smart real quick Hot Tabasco, for her sake.
There is a very small variety of monkey (spider?) that is quite helpful for quadraplegics; they're also too small to do any significant damage to a person if they "go bad".
