A man walks into a pet store and is looking around when he spots a chimpanzee in a cage marked, "$1000". The man looks a little closer and discovers that the chimpanzee is wearing a tie and a hat and is twirling a set of handcuffs around his finger. Curious, the man summons the shopkeeper and asks him what the deal is with this thousand-dollar monkey.

"Sir, You have discovered our Police Officer Monkeys. This one is our basic Patrol version. It's got a POST Basic certification; can fire 'Expert' with a Glock, Remington 870, or an AR15; knows the Penal Code and Traffic Code by heart and is up-to-date on Cultural Diversity and Active Shooter Response. Very good value for a thousand dollars!"

The man is suitably impressed and moves to the next cage, which is occupied by a gorilla - also wearing a hat and tie, but is gnawing on a pen instead of the handcuffs.

The price on this one is $5000. Shopkeeper exclaims, "Ah, sir! You have discovered the Sergeant model! This one has a POST Advanced certification, is capable of training any other monkeys in basic firearms skills, mechanics of arrest, physical training, investigation and small unit tactics! It can even type! Very good value for five thousand, sir!"

Impressed, the man moves to the last cage. Inside, he finds an orangutan, dressed in the same hat and tie as the others, but holding only a coffee cup. "What does this one do that he's worth $12,000?" asks the man.

The shopkeeper clears his throat, "Ah, sir, well, um.... we have never actually seen him do anything except drink coffee and play with his private parts, but he says he's a Lieutenant."

Sure hope you don't speed on your way to the next CIS class. You might want to bring some bananas just in case.

Ah, you so funny!

Would the "computer-monkey" be about $50?

However, I cannot argue (especially the Lieutenant one. Of course, that will probably change if I ever make LT).

Ahem... chimpanzees are technically apes, not monkeys.

50.00 for the "basic" model, but the monthly upgrades are 89.99 each

then you have additional licensing fees, airtime charges, and yearly service contracts.

Ah... I see you have the Microsoft Open License Monkey.

What about the SWAT monkey? Wiley-Xs and a handful of poo to fling, perhaps?

Here's how to tell if something is a monkey or an ape!
