"A smart chimpanzee and a dim-witted human are not as indistinguishable

[atommom]

as people think."

"The great apes can do a lot more than we give them credit for," said Charles Pasternak, speaking to a packed crowd of more than 100 people at ASU's College of Law.

Humans shouldn't use the term homo sapiens -- which in Latin means wise man -- to describe themselves because it separates them too much from apes, he said.

Kind of a lackluster article, but I just had to post that first quote. ;)

3. Lyrics from the musical "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels":

"Dress up a monkey in Armani,
He may seem precocious and cute.
Despite all that primpin',
You still got a chimp in a suit.

Teach him the second
Verse of "Swanee"
And most of "Moon River" to boot.
Sure people will gape,
But you still got an ape
in a suit."

For some reason, that song always reminds me of a certain president....
