Non-gay animal post

Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I apologize for my roommates. It was worse to watch than it was to read, I can assure you.

Today I thought I was going blind for a few hours - blurry, double vision, etc. And then mathgimp saved the day by forcing me to drink gallons of water to prove I was not going blind, but merely dehydrated. In the interim, I decided that, were I to go blind, I would like a helper monkey. Upon regaining my eyesight, I discovered Helping Hands, a wonderful organization (with video!) that trains and provides helper monkeys. The monkeys go to college in Boston! ..sadly, (for my dream) they're for the mobility-impaired, not the blind, but it's still damn cute and pretty neat! Fodder informed me that's how Planet of the Apes started...but we realized we were OK with that.
