The Secret Life of Monkey

Posted by gerrod in: just kidding

I mean, you think you know someone. You’ve worked with them, you’ve socialised with them, you invited them to your wedding – heck, you even lived with them for a while. You think you’ve got your finger on the pulse…

That is, until you find out that they have an alter-ego. I’m talking about Monkey – that loveable rascal, who until now we all believe was just a kid trapped inside a kid’s body, living at the Goldie with his lovely lady friend. Well readers, you’ll be shocked to find out that Monkey actually lives in Tampa, and has a complete seperate life to the one we all thought he led.

Don’t believe me? Compare the pics for yourself – the first was taken late last year at our wedding. The second was a photo that I found on his secret Moblog that I have gone to the liberty of exposing:

DoubleMonkey

Still don’t believe it? Here’s further proof – another Moblog image of him about to devour 6000 jelly beans! After seeing him go through a 1kg box of Jelly Babies in a single weekend, I was convinced, without a doubt, that this truly was the real Monkey.

So now I don’t know what the real story is. My only guess is that after his USA trip last year, he sent back a clone and secretly moved to Florida. Well Monks – you certainly had me fooled…

It was on the Moblog home page one day when I checked. (When you post a new picture to your Moblog, it goes onto the Moblog home page for the world to see – until 9 more images are posted and yours falls off the end).

I demand a DNA test! (sorry, been watching too much CSI.) I suspect these two are long lost brothers!
