"Monkey see, monkey go all-in"

That's how they roll!!!

From MSNBC:

"When given a choice between steady rewards and the chance for more, monkeys will gamble, a new study found.

And they'll keep taking risks as the stakes rise and dry spells get longer. "

Picture of the Day

Bush took to the road this week ***from his 5-week vacation*** to hide from Cindy Sheehan (the greiving mother of a son who died in Iraq and who demands that Bush explain to her what noble cause her son died for)... I mean, to try to salvage his tanking poll numbers (as of today, now lower than Nixon's at the height of Watergate)... I mean, to remind 'Merica why we're fighting a war in Iraq - why, 9/11 of course!

Unfortunately for him, looks like monkey-boy's screeners are on vacation all month, too... 2 vets stood up and turned their backs on him during his speeech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars yesterday. How'd they let these unpatriotic, anti-american, america-hating, left-wing, tree-hugging, granola-bar eating, commie, dirty lib-ruls through anyway?

ps: Maybe this is the real reason he took to the road... he apparently needs a vacation from his vacation... http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050819/laf006.html?.v=19
