The 100th Monkey

A parable in which a learned behavior spreads instantaneously from one group of monkeys to all related monkeys once a critical number is reached. By generalisation it means the instant, paranormal spreading of an idea or ability to the remainder of a population once a certain portion of that population has heard of the new idea or learned the new ability. Adapted for Brooklyn Blowback with puppets by David Kay, MLS.

I picked this video to illustrate the 100th monkey concept to my wife. Big mistake! While the audio was OK we were so distracted by the video that we had to not watch and listen to the narration only to concentrate. We could not figure out what the point of video was. What did the statue have to do with it? Why not focus on just the book only? Even better just the woman telling the story. Not hating just telling it like it is.

Thank you for your comment. Brooklyn Blowback strives to take folk stories and present them in innovative and unconventional ways. While we understand that some might find it confusing, we hope to inspire others to do adapt their own stories. In this particular episode, we were trying to combine Maurice Sendak's WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE illustrations with puppets to support the story. Apologies if you found it too confusing. We try to appeal to children of all ages. Thanks for subscribing!

Well the fact is - it really did happen and does everytime since the team of man and wife documented it in 1959

I have a recipe for sweet potato french fries: Chop into fries; put in plastic bag (big enough, you won't believe how much one sweet potato can yield) add:

2 tbsp EVOO

Blck pep

thyme

garlic salt

Now shake that bag like a Japanese monkey and pour them out on a cookie sheet. Cook for 1/2 hour at 350. This recipe came to me out of the blue...of You Tube.
