ahh mojo. good stuff. "show them your happy dance."

Who remembers "The State"? "Hey! Letsa watch the monkeys do it!"

I liked the monkey from the sprint (i hate sprint)commercial where the guy brings home a "monkey with a cold" instead of a "movie-something old".

(tho technically, i think it's a chimp,) i personally love this video of a monkey washing a cat. now THAT's entertainment, baby...

Does anyone know where I can find the Sprint "Monkey With a Cold" Commercial? A must have for monkey lovers everywhere!
