- Bill Gates unleashes swarm of mosquitos on audience -- Microsoft chairman Bill Gates released a swarm of mosquitos into the crowd. Ending malaria is a particular passion of Gates's, whose Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has spent millions fighting the disease... "Not only poor people should experience this," Gates said as he let the bugs loose on his audience.. A showman's way of making a point, perhaps. But it doesn't do much to undo Gates's reputation, borne out of the Microsoft antitrust investigations of the 1990s, that the man considers himself above the law. [2009]

Over 800,000 people die from malaria each year in the continent. We could use DDT to deal with this problem, but the great humanitarians on the Left wouldn't dream of it.

I don’t think you are getting it. It’s not the bugs, its the apes. either kill the gorrillas or don’t live where they live. Or prevent the gorillas from contacting bugs.

Whenever our ape ancestry is spouted I always think about the times I called my kid “monkey boy” while climbing up the trees and building houses. Oh, that’s right, monkeys don’t build tree houses with hammers and nails. Sorry.

Was the first human to be infected by a Gorilla a “pitcher” or a “catcher?”

Some of the blacklisted actors got work under all that makeup, I believe. John Wayne was also known to bring out-of-work blacklisted actors into his movies. :’) Why yes, I do enjoy making my own fun. ;’)

We could use DDT to deal with this problem, but the great humanitarians on the Left wouldn't dream of it. Silent Spring was one of the great junk science hoaxes of the 20th Century and its damage still hasn't been undone.

Do you have a hall pass? Is your middle school teacher looking for you? Does your mommy know you’re using her computer?

No, you'll never make a monkey out of me!
(Statue of Liberty rises)
O my God! I was wrong!
It was Earth, all along!
You've finally made a monkey,
Apes: Yes we've finally made a monkey,
Troy: Yes you've
& Apes: finally made a monkey out of me!
Troy: I love you, Dr. Zaius!
