    So, I’m guessing monkey labor is okay, as long as it’s not forced?

    Intimidation is a force. Monkeys should have free will!

    When I was in Sri Lanka they told me that they trained monkeys to collect the nectar of palm flowers. That can be cooked down to make palm sugar although one problem is sometimes it ferments in the flowers and the monkeys get drunk. Then it's tough getting a good days work out of them..

    Is it wrong that I'm wondering if pandas can be trained to shovel snow?

    Bare-fisted? No, not bare-fisted. I wore gloves.

    "Why do these women always interfere?"

    He's talking about a fistfight, not sex...

    "I found a way. I found a way to survive with them. Am I great person? I don’t know. We’re all great people. Everyone has something in them that’s wonderful. I’m just different. And I love these bears enough to do it right. And I’m edgy enough. And I’m tough enough. But mostly I love these bears enough to survive and do it right.”

    – Tim "Grizzly Man" Treadwell, the day before he and his girlfriend were eaten alive by those same bears.
