quote:

TOKYO (Reuters) - A rogue monkey holed up at a Tokyo train station for more than two hours on Wednesday before giving dozens of net-wielding police officers the slip among crowds of excited children and passersby."It's a monkey - it's not like it did anything bad," a police spokesman said, adding that the animal was still on the loose.

Imagine you are in the process of your morning commute, waiting for the train, and out of nowhere 30 police officers with nets appear. What a way to start the day. I thought things like this only happened in the movies. I wonder if the rogue monkey made it to work on time.

The ratio of how fast the cops can run and climb vrs how many pastries are consummed on a daily basis may be a factor.

Not surprised at all that the simian escaped. Fishnets are a Fashion Don't with that much body hair.
