BECAUSE HE WAS DEAD!
haha. That is my favorite joke....ever. One of my brothers made it up. I laugh every time I tell it. I know, I'm a nerd.
Anyways, speaking of monkeys, I made a sock monkey puppet.
Isn't he cute? I am so happy. What really frustrated me was when I finished at like 10, I only had one googly eye. So I had to wait till the morning to go buy Michaels and get some more googly eyes. Poor monkey.
I am really glad I found this pattern. Before my nephew was born almost 2 years ago, I wanted to make a sock monkey, but couldn't find any free patterns. I did see there was a book out there, but I couldn't find it in stores, and I didn't want to just order a little book on the net. I think I ended up making a little blanket and hat I found in "Happy Hooker". Haha, and the brother that made up the monkey joke is the one with the kid that I made the blanket for. How cute. So yeah. I like free patterns. Especially ones as cute as this one!

I really liked your sock monkey blanket.
Did John tell you he made up the joke? I remember Gene telling me he made it up which caused me to burst out laughing because I'd heard the joke way back in 5th/6th grade from my cousin. It's a very funny joke that's been around a little while, and I found out later it continues...
Why did the monkey fall out of the tree? Because he was dead!
Why did the second monkey fall out of the tree? Because he was tied to the other monkey (and sometimes, because he was holding the other monkey's hand)!
Why did the third monkey fall out of the tree? Because he thought it was a game!
Oh, and just so Gene doesn't get mad at me, he says he never told me he made it up, but found it in joke book and liked it.
I like monkeys and I like that joke. So you're not a nerd....unless that means we both are?!
; )
haha, yeah John ..excuse me... Johnny told me he made it up a long time ago. I never heard it otherwise. But it doesnt surprise me that they were messing with my head. I really like the continuation. I'm totally going to be telling everyone that now. lol.
