Monkey Stolen From SF Zoo Found Scared But Healthy

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A beloved squirrel monkey known as Banana Sam was returned scared but safe to the San Francisco Zoo on Saturday night, two days after he was taken.

Banana Sam was “hungry, trembling and thirsty,” after police returned him to the zoo, but a full physical examination showed he was healthy, zoo spokesman Danny Latham said in a statement.

The 17-year-old monkey was found at Stern Grove, a park about a mile from the zoo, police spokesman Carlos Manfredi said.

The monkey was found by a bystander who saw him come out of the bushes.

“He managed to coax the monkey into his backpack,” Manfredi said.

The man called police, and within an hour they met with zoo officials, who verified the monkey’s identity.  << (LOL)

Does anyone know how to fix a computer where the typing goes wherever the cursor is pointing during my keyboarding?  It just randomly starts typing where the cursor is resting.  It has been so hard to post lately, I have mostly been reading, I have to correct so much.  It also will bring up whatever is on the bottom of the screen while I am keyboarding.  It is very frustrating.

If I didn't fix it, the above would look like this:

...and that was pretty good, most of the time, it's worse.  Help!

 



Bearly, I wonder if that has to do with that "compatibility" issue that causes the cursur to jump around and drives people nuts.  Let me look for those instructions.

TBM helped.  When I type on my laptop, I need to turn the touch pad off.  It's like a miracle.

I've had that happen and I don't know what starts it or what stops it, but it drives me nuts when it happens! I'll be watching for your response, Klaas!

Of course it could just be that Bearly was naughty this Christmas, you know! That angel has a hard job!!   

I definitely need that angel with me at all times.  Thanks CBB, for designing my avis over the years.  You are so very talented and I am so grateful.  Love you!

 

How is Ku?

Do you really have to rub it in?  It is 47 here, winds gusting up to 35 mph and tomorrow it is only going to be 35 degrees.  But it will be back in the upper 50's by the weekend.

Hope everyone had a good new years.  I spent today cleaning out my fridge, cleaning out my cabinets, then went to the grocery and filled them all up again.  I am glad the holidays are over and was really glad to get rid of ALL the food that reminded me of it.  I am fixing a meatloaf right now and have a pan of black-eyed peas on just for New Years day.  Red, Klaas, and all our "great/lovely" mods--words cannot express how GREAT you all are.  Thanks for giving us Scared Monkeys!

Love you too, Bearly!! 

Ku's doing OK right now. We take it a day at a time, and I'm giving her immune regulator pills twice a day. It may not do anything but it was the best John's research could come up with and he discussed it with the Vet who got her included in a protocol study through the University of Virginia's Vet school. Basically, there's an average term of the illness at her stage (3 months) so they'll just track her progression to see if there's a significant difference with the pills. The only consistent change I notice is that she tires more quickly than she used to.......  but she is getting older, so that's not really alarming. No new growths.......... I hold my breath and check her every morning. Thanks for asking!

With all the New Year's resolutions, I got to thinking about life in general, and I agree with whoever came up with this idea:

Life should be backwards



1-You should die first, start out dead and get it out of the way,

2-Then, you wake up in an old age home feeling better every day,

3-You get kicked out for being too healthy,

4-Go collect your pension,

5-Then, when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day,

6-You work for 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement,

7-You drink alcohol, you party, you're generally promiscuous and you get
ready for High School,

8-You go to Elementary School,

9-you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities,

10-you become a baby, and then,

11-You spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, in spa-like
conditions, central heating, room service on tap, and larger quarters every
day,

12-and finally you finish off as a really good time in the sack!

And I wanna go swimming soooooooooooo badly!!!  Klaas? Did you ever see that movie with Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet called "The Holiday"? Kate lives in England and Cameron lives in California. They switch houses for a vacation. Just asking!   

Well, we haven't had any snow..........yet......... and so far it hasn't been a bad winter. January and February are always the worst months for us so we'll see. Wouldn't you like to have a little snow Klaas? Hmmmm?

Can one of you that live in Florida tell me what suburb is good area to look at homes to rent when we come down to Orlando this summer?  We haven't been there in a long time so appreciate all help.  We are going to the Disney Parks a few days and then want to go to Cocoa to the Beach.  We are looking to rent a house to stay in as we have family from Tampa that will come over and spend the day with us one day.   I will be on and off today.

we usually are in Orlando area since we have an apartment there. Big area...some of the areas are of course nicer than others..We are in Winter Park/Maitland area....I think lol....
there are probably plenty of houses and condos close to Disney..Cocoa Beach is nice and if you get a day, go over to St. Augustine...very cool place!
