How much does a monkey cost?

[heaven&hell]

I once owned some see monkies, but they thought they were bad asses. Mainly because when they left the ocean to come live with me, they brought their muscles. Get it? Muscles. Man I crack myself up.

 

 

 

Did you have SEA monkies or SEE monkies?

 

I meant sea monkies. Why you gotta bust my Humpback whale man?

 

 

 

Similar to the SHARK, I can smell blood from miles away.

Call Moe's Tavern in Springfield and ask to speak to Moe. He's been known to deal in pandas and killer whales so I'm sure he could quote you a decent price on a monkey.

 

I'm not going to ask why you want a monkey, because I'm not sure I really want to know.

 

 

No Keith he has to talk to Homer about the monkey, remember he had a helper monkey that he about killed.

Just be careful and don't get one of those f*ckers like in The Shining.............bad monkey bad

I See Monkeys - The 6th Sense or The Seaxth Sense

Didn't notice this thread before... But I can actually answer this question (kind of).

 

I've actually rented a monkey before. Before all of your minds start filling up with all kinds of thoughts, let me explain a little.

 

We used to have a contest where I used to work. For Christmas, all the departments would have a contest to see who could get the best gift for the boss. Needless to say, every year we had to top the year before. Year 2 I was put in charge of renting a monkey. Come to think of it I was put in charge every year (LOL). We had a big Christmas party in one of the Casinos in Las Vegas where we were to present these presents.

 

I was finally able to contact a monkey I could rent. I still have the price breakdown:

 

1 monkey for 1 hour (no trick involved)... ok I know some of your minds are wondering again.... was $220. You could pet and feed the monkey but that was it. If you wanted a brief speach about monkeys and their habits, add $30, making it $250. If you wanted a few basic tricks.... $280. Now you know we wanted the wildest, craziest thing we could get... which included a trapeeze act. Total cost $345. I was able to talk the guy down to $300 plus he had accesses to the open bar. Needless to say, with about 160 peqple jammed in this convention room at the Flamingo Hilton, it was pretty wild (not to mention the open bar). About 20 minutes into this act, the monkey takes a dump will swingging from this contraption. Of course that sent the crowd into a thunderous uproar. It turn, this startled the monkey and he jumped off the swing and took of into the crowd. People were scurring everywhere. The monkey jumped across the stage and started to climb up a curtain that must have been 30 feet high. We needed to get a ladder from the casino for the owner to get him down. A casino manager came in and locked down the convention room so the monkey didn'e escape into the casino and hotel. 30 mins later the monkey was gone. Needless to say we were never able to rent the Flamingo Hilton again for any event.

 

So to answer the question here... $300 and an open bar or $345 with no bar. I'm sure glad I didn't try to buy that damn little monkey.

 

PS ~ we actually had the monkey for about an hour and 20 minutes.

This just in.................

 

I received 3 monkeys in the mail today from Lala.

 

1 of them was missing his back insert, but it completes my monkey discography regardless.

You obviously forgot to set your Lala Monkey preferences to "F & B INSERTZ ONLY PLZ?"

We almost saw real live monkeys in Thailand. We heard them in the forests, laughing at us... but they hid. And hid well. Damn monkeys.

I will trade you my very very rare D'Molls 8-Track Demo for one of those Sea Monkeys.

What it really boils down to is what kind of Monkey you are looking for ... Big, tall , short, or small ... Hairy ,Scary ,possibly just to marry ... You really need to be a lil more descriptive in yout Monkey Inquiery ... I have heard tho thru the grapevine that a spanked monkey is free .... That cannot be confirmed at this time .

King Kong was a big monkey....... some questions

 

1a) Is there a big dent in the pavement where he fell from the Empire State building?

 

and if not

 

1b) Is there a plaque that marks the spot where he fell? ....Probably with words like "King Kong, a very BIG monkey, fell here"

 

2) Where is he buried?

Is there any real proof that he is in fact dead?

 

He could be off living with Jimmy Hoffa, Jim Morrison, Elvis Presley, and Tupac.

[Nick C]

I'd have paid to see King Kong ride a kiddies bike with maybe a bell hops hat on.

[Geoff]

King Kong is buried in my heart.

[heaven&hell]

King Kong is buried in my heart.

 

You must have a big heart.

[Geoff]

King Kong is buried in my heart.

 

You must have a big heart.

 

You know I do. And you're all welcome to be a part of it.

[Nick C]

Not as big as his (or my) biceps!

Now that we found out how much a Monkey costs, I was kind of curious to know how much other animals/creatures cost.

 

So how much does a Tiger Shark cost?

 

I don't have an aquarium or anything but I thought it would be awsome to have a Tiger Shark as a pet.

[Geoff]

Hey Wes, I hear a Tiger Shark costs an arm and a leg... literally.

[heaven&hell]

It only costs that much if you swim with it, which I don't plan to do.

 

I was thinking more like $15,000 or $20,000.

[Geoff]

Is that including aquarium hire, or would you buy an in-ground pool to support it? I have to admit, it would be kind of cool. If he didn't eat you.

[heaven&hell]

No takers on the Tiger Shark?

 

How about a Rhino?
