The women also allege that they were so alarmed by the "filthy and dangerous conditions" — including rats in the food prep area and gorilla urine stored in the refrigerator next to employees' food — that Alperin notified California's Division of Occupational Safety and Health on July 16, 2004.

Cal/OSHA fined the Foundation $300 for violations after making an Aug. 5 inspection.

$300 for Gorilla urine in the fridge!! Glad to see the goverment is looking out for us!

Well, I guess you'll be asked to "act out the incident" at the trial.

Nothing more than a naked money grab.

So Koko is a lez?

[CAWats]

Gorgeous!!! (The girl ain't bad either).

[TC Rider]

Hmmmm, they can teach a gorilla sign language, but can't housebreak them? I'll keep my dog thank you.

[atomic conspiracy]

But Alperin and Keller say Koko's celebrity status doesn't give her a pass for inappropriate behavior.

Oh, I don't know. It works for the Hollywood crowd.

Koko is a gorilla for goodness sake, Robin Williams' hairy nipples would be more attractive (and familiar) to her.

[JewishRighter]

Anyone here that absolutely most cloying commercial by Robin Williams about his mind-altering experience communicating with Koko. He's trying to save Koko and her species. Sounds like he's not the only boob involved.

They could have just bought Koko a _Girls Gone Wild_ video.

[linkinpunk]

OK. Who was the one who taught Koko to sign...

S-h-o-w M-e Y-o-u-r B-o-o-b-i-e-s

[weegee]

Well it has to be worth more than 4 times this payout...

Man Outed on Radio Show to Receive $270K

as these women were being ASKED to engage in an unnatural act for their employer.

[weegee]

BTW, maybe you should pitch that as a new reality based game show for Court TV: "Naked Money Grab"

[Robert A Cook PE]

Patterson, eh?

So what was she lookin' for while the gorilla was lookin' fer babes?

[r9etb]

Leave it to FR to have an old thread containing the requisite picture:

[Bluegrass Conservative]

Wow! How can you be THAT smart and THAT naive at the same time? LOL

[anymouse]

Nothing more than a naked money grab.

For a moment there I thought your post read:
Nothing more than a naked monkey grab. ;)

[CAWats]

When questioned, the gorilla coyly refused to answer, playing it close to the vest.

[wildbill]

Could been worse. Koko coulda been a male gorilla.

[samadams2000]

I heard Koko could sign..."Look at those GAZUMBAZZ!!!!
