More Fun Than A Barrel Full Of Infinite Monkeys


In an ungodly cacophony of howls, screeches, and clicks, an infinite number of Monkeys sit chained at an infinite number of typewriters. It is a fact that infinite monkeys at infinite typewriters will eventually produce every piece of literature ever written, translated in every language ever spoken.


Being monkeys though, many forgo typing and instead take to bashing the hell out of their typewriters with stones. Others simply use the inscrutable devices as toilets. But somewhere a Rhesus monkey is smearing feces on the copy of Hamlet he has produced.


Monkey # 7* 10^75 however, is diligently hashing out a copy of my memoirs. Unfortunately, monkey # 7*10^75 will not get to enjoy my memoirs, as he possesses no conception of written English. He can only pound on the typewriter with a mindless abandon that could only be achieved by a Sulawesi Crested Macaque.


At this very moment he is completing the chapter where I attend classes at a security guard training center in downtown Brooklyn, on the second floor of an old municipal building that reeks of urinal cakes and desperation. There, I befriend an Elvis impersonator with Down Syndrome named Jessie. This chapter is entitled, "Elbis."


In the next chapter I'm held-up in front of a deli by a mugger who's polite enough to leave me with just enough money to buy a veggie club sandwich.


If you want to know anything else about me, ask Monkey # 7* 10^75. Or send me a message. It's your call.

Mmmmm, Copper. Jul 29

Whenever I get really cold, like really really cold, for some reason I taste copper. It's more like electrified copper. As though I licked the top of a copper-plated 9 volt battery.

OK, people: just so it's perfectly clear, Donelle is the bomb.us. OK? He likes science, and he has a hat that's almost as cool as mine (not the one in the picture -- yeah, right). What's not to love?

Congratulations! You were my 101st comment! That makes you almost cool, but ultimately a big-time loser. You suck.

...Is it really such a stretch of the imagination to envisage an infinite variety of typewriters?... (Pictured: Japanese typewriter.)

Cubism says:

I take issue with "every language ever spoken". What about anything in cyrillic? Have they rescued typewriters from the cold war? And certain languages, such as eastern languages with pictorial kanji (japanese and the like) don't even lend themselves to typewriting, to typewriters. Otherwise i commend you for taking on the brave role of "Mathmatical theorum Street team promoter". Peace, Xavier
