   Mayday, Mayday, The ship is going down.
   Repeat…
   The Ship Is Going Down!
   Online casino’s buying monkey species names?
   I feel like I’m living inside the movie “Back To The Future”, only this time, Marty loses and Biff wins.
   Oh well, smoke em’ if ya got em.
   Anybody for a round of Blackjack?

   The monkey retains its dignity. The casino goes down in history for the stupidity and inappropriateness of its self-promotion. What a bunch of idiots.

   Oh, I am so sad. Let’s just hope that the $650,000 is enough to keep development out of their habitat (and thus, internet casinos).
   Couldn’t they at least have named it the Golden Palace monkey? The .com part is what makes it so awful.

   I think those golden palace weirdos also paid $15,000 to some couple to name their child goldenpalace.com. I remember reading that they also bought Britney Spears pregnancy test. (Ew.) I think that these guys must have charred black souls. I really wished you were joking….

   they also bought a ghost from a woman and a grilled cheese sandwich with the image of jesus on it I believe…there’s gotta be something I could put on ebay for Golden Palace to pay me ridiculous amounts of money for.

   they also were behind the guy at the olympics, that was on the diving board in a tutu, and they are responsible for the streakers at the super bowl and so on…. and people getting tatoos for for advertising.

    maybe the dotcom phonemenon will take off… maybe i’ll call my kid lifeispreciousdotcom just for fun 😀
    Besides… I don’t think someone would have paid $650 000 just to name the monkey “Harry”
    love and lighter,
