Well, my boy lives here at work, and as you can see, he has put on a few milligrams, even if he lost a hand in a weighing accident.

The keyboard tray and a small box gave just enough boost to get Winston up to the keyboard (that I need to dust).




No man, you need to either CLEAN or replace that keyboard. Winston's likely to catch a flesh / fur eating disease.

Inaugural... The term "first annual" is almost as annoying as the word irregardless.

Yeah, but "inaugural" doesn't indicate how often the event will occur; it simply tells me it's the first. "First annual" tells me it's the first and that I can expect it to repeat every year.

Inaugural - marking a beginning: first in a projected series.

The only monkey they allow at work is me.

I'll trade you a box of woot! monkeys for your new temp

I met Nathan at CES and discovered that he has an aptitude for electronics -





So, he helps me out at work.

My monkey is is buried under everything I throw on my desk. At least he is not lonely, I have Yoshi on the top of my monitor, Dexter on the left and Spiderman looking over everything. I also have a "new" monkey hiding behind the monitor. He is not very social and rarely comes out.

here is my giant woot monkey at my console yesterday helping guard my Coke Zero and my Tablet



FYI , My monkey always stays at work for the occasional destressing and harassing of coworkers

Nathan was giving a class today on the correct audio waveforms

Here is mini-monkey hanging out in one of his favorite places, the quiet study area. Here he is about to have a contest with the fire alarm to see who is louder

My purple-caped crusader rides on the outside window, greeting all that enter campus.

So, I told my monkeys that a couple could hitch a ride with work with me today...looks like they didn't listen! A whole BUNCH of them showed up! I would also like to point out that using the internet for personal use if forbidden, looks like my nosy monkeys are trying to get me into trouble!



Then, I turned around and found them climbing my boxes and inventory like....well...monkeys!





So, they had to be put in 'time out' LOL!

Woot! better watch out, these monkeys are getting some ideas...

After seeing your hoard, I sat a couple of my monkeys down last night and told them that they couldn't come to work with me and that they should spread the word to the rest of the monkeys at my Monkey Preserve

They actually listened to me and stayed home (which is surprising as no one listens to me).

But Nathan is still helping out and wanted to check out the dispatch console that we are working on and he was getting some tips from one of the dispatch monkeys

I keep telling those dispatchers not to eat the mic (but as I said they don't listen to me)

The best part of that is...it's not even ALL of my monkeys! The Monkey Games Monkeys weren't there (only the one from the torch contest), and none of the duplicates where there...and my only giant monkey wasn't there, lol! And considering how I got most of those older monkeys (paying up to $10 a piece from people on here selling them, I think I did pretty good! )

To theoneill555, nice pack...horde.....I'm a little jealous! And, my monkeys don't listen either, nor do my cats. I seriously gave up talking to either one of them, lol!~

That is not a pack or a horde. That is a couple of my monkeys. I think I am over 400 now(I think I will count them this weekend)

OK. Discount the a little jealous comment. I'm officially green with envy! Excuse me while I go cry at my inadequacy (holy...I spelled that right!). I'd love to see pictures of all of them! I just want to see how green I can turn, lol~

Why thank you! You can tell it sometimes get boring at work as I had the time to pose them all! It did take some work, but it was worth it in my opinion! Then again, it was also an excuse to play with the monkeys, lol!

I just received a Monkey Games monkey and I will take him to work next year.
