In "Velveteria "

No, wait, Velveteria is the stuff I mix with the good cheese in my Nacho Dip in order to make it melt better (and if I don't mix in too much, it doesn't screw up the flavor).

In "I before E, except after C "

Some English words are just spelled weird.
(sidenote: this is the single slowest loading webpage I've accessed in years)

In "Breakdancing Gorilla? "

Saturday Night on BBCAmerica's airing of the Graham Norton Show, Andy Serkis showed off the arm extender that allows him 'walk like an ape' as Caesar in the Planet of the Apes movies. An hour later, on Doctor Who, they turned one of the Doctor's companions into a Cyberman. It was a hell of a night.

This is why, in the wild, certain species are kept on separate continents.

Seriously, tracicle and the MoFi management should do a serious trademark claim against these people... considering the current state of Patent/Copyright Law, it may be the only way to make some money off the monkey house here...

In "The Future. "

Because "Planet of the Apes" is SO much cooler than "Planet of the Lemurs".

In "China is tightening its control of the internet"

Related (in my mind): While the US downsizes from Disney Stores to Disney Shops, Shanghai is getting the largest Disney Store in the world Because China is a much better Market...

In "Vikings Are the New Zombie: "

For the record, I wish SOMETHING would become "The New Zombies", maybe something like: Zombeavers.

In "The Face of God, on St. John's Wort."

Well, I certainly did not expect to click over and see the face of Professor Cosmo Fishhawk. It took me a moment to decide NOT to cancel my GoComics.com subscription...

In "M.O.N.K.E.Y. Part N.I.N.E.: Now It Never Ends"

please note... this forks to the 'new mofi' here... just because I wanted it to.

In "Because why not?"

I could think of no better way to test the new MoFi than with a fork of the Everlasting Blogstopper Game... ain't I a stinker?

In "M.O.N.K.E.Y. Part N.I.N.E.: Now It Never Ends"
