My Dad came home from collecting tolls at the interstate bridge. Guess what, he said! Last night a woman offered me a monkey. I said, my wife and daughter would kill me if I ever brought that animal home. I almost killed him right then and there. I always wanted a monkey.
Many years later a baby monkey came to live with me and my family.
Thirty years have passed. Lester is still with me. The joy and the pain of my life. He laughs and cries with me and torments me with his many demands.
