The first semester is suddenly over and the last day of classes left me with some interesting gifts. There is no doubt that I am going to miss my students. That is with the exception of all the cell phone talking, bathroom breaks, and lateness. There always room for improvement next semester.

You may think this is repetitive, another post about monkeys and all, but I assure you this is none like the last. Ham the Chimp was the first primate to ever go into space and needless to say became pretty famous for it. My students will fill you in on the rest.

While little has happened here lately, I took a small venture a couple hours north of Bangkok. The quick day trip provided me with enough monkey pictures to fill all of your monkey picture desires, and then some (depending on your love of monkeys). The multitude of Wikipedia links might make your brain explode, so be careful!
