Are you smarter than a chimpanzee?

NEW YORK - Never mind that TV show that asks if you're smarter than a fifth-grader. Is your memory better than a young chimp's? ....Maybe not

Cool art. & the "reasons" make sense: the chimps have a memory
set where "remembering" brings them food/saves their azzes, and
they have little language center taking up space in the ol'noodle.

On a side note, a old college roomie of mine took one on in a side
show deal, about 1966. This guy was tough, strong and 19. His
nickname was 'Barrel' and he was a helluva athlete and afraid of
nothing.

It was a Hundred bucks if anyone could get the chimp down or even
stay in the ring for more than a min. Needless to say the chimp was
on him in a NY minute and dragged him right to the mat. Then, the
chimp pinched the crap outta my roomie...he hollered Uncle, the
handler said something and the chimp jumped right off and pranced
around the ring, Ali-style. Very, very strong creatures...

HiJack over, lol!
