I have to say, I had no idea that offering to dance like a monkey would be quite so appealing. Apparently, though, it’s a big hit– John Scalzi proclaimed it “the comedy highlight of 2008.” This, from a year featuring Tina Fey as Sarah Palin.
In the two days since Scalzi’s post, donations have jumped from $1,700 to almost $4,200. Which still isn’t $6,000, so I’m not dancing yet, but I am making sure I know how to record video with the webcam, because the whole thing looks disturbingly possible….
Feel free to provide suggestions on what dancing like a monkey would look like. YouTube isn’t much help at this point, but there is this:
Which, um, is a song, and has the word “monkey” in it. So that’s almost like a dancing monkey. Kind of.
Anyway, make a donation. Thanks.
