   What a way to start the day.

   This is ripe with commentary.

   Boxer and Feinstein got their favorite reward: a sip of Kool-Aid soft drink.

   No Kiddin’…!

   Can we out here in California make a trade straight up? Feinstien and Boxer for Boxer and Feinstien?

   Wow, they’re so lucky – I’ve always wished to have a monkey named after me!

   I bet the Kook-Aid (oops, Freudian slip?) was donated from the originals’ personal stashes!

   By the way MM – great job on F&F this morning.

   U.S. researchers said on Monday in a finding that suggests nonverbal math skills are not unique to humans.

   I did not know this was unknown. Haven’t there been counting horses for years and years at circuses? Addition and subtraction even.

   Maybe the next study will be on whether or not dogs can smell better than humans, or whether birds can see better than humans. It’s amazing the discoveries that scientists make.

    Wouldn’t Pelosi and Reid be more like “snakes” rather than rats?

    Actually, they’d be rat snakes

    Monkey’s are not “Masters of Their Own Domain“. Just wondering.

    “It shows when you take language away from a human, they end up looking just like monkeys in terms of their performance,”

    If you compare these monkeys to the Dems, isn’t that an insult to the monkeys?
    It would seem that they at least have a memory vs. the Dems. The Dems keep forgetting that the president has told them when he’s going to veto a bill and then seem surprised when he does.

    Go monkeys!

    The friends I’m sending this story to are going ape over it.

    Seriously bananas.

    They were so grateful I’d gibbon this to them.

    It just goes to show, lemur things change, lemur they stay the same.

    (I hope these don’t get me banned.)

    I think what she meant to say was:

    ‘Boxer and Feinstein drink make the Kool-Aid’

    Her study pitted the monkey math team of Boxer and Feinstein — two female macaque monkeys named for U.S. senators Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein of California — with 14 Duke University students.

    If I’m not mistaken…
    Weren’t Boxer and Feinstein (the NC macaques, not the CA macaques) members of the Group of 88 that hounded the Duke lacrosse players?

    And both groups fared about the same.

    I think this part worries me the most.

    What’s more interesting is that both the monkey versions of Boxer and Feinstein, and the “human” versions of Boxer and Feinstein have a tendancy to throw their own excrement when they get upset.

    The macaques didn’t have the (dis)advantage of attending the Liberal school system.Only surprise is that they didn’t do much better,since math is based on logic and common sense.

    Now the next test should be comparing them with Columbia students in allowing an opponent to speak freely.

    I’m guessing the monkeys would win that one too.

    Well, since the original B & F believe we all evolved from simians, I suspect that they think the monkeys are just a form of reincarnation, on their way up the evolutionary ladder.

    Just wait, Dennett or Dawkins will claim this “proves” evolution. Yeah, just like Piltdown Man.

    And I live in their stinkin’ State, too! Would someone please just push the button and end the misery?
