   One of my favorite quotes: “We’ve heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboard could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know this is not true.” - Robert Wilensky, University of California, Berkeley

   chickens are more fun
   than a barrel of monkeys.

   I think lately, the million monkeys are in charge of tv closed-captioning.

    If you leave Shakespeare in a room with a million typewriters, he will eventually write the complete works of The Monkees.

    Also, Hamlet II is coming out this summer:

    I am not kidding.

    I thought it was an “infinite” number of monkeys?

    Theoretically one monkey and one typewriter would ‘eventually’ do the same..it would just take a million times longer! - you’d have to replace the dead monkey every 40 years or so with a fresh one though. in an infinite universe anything would be possible

    A million monkeys developed & run a perfectly useless political system for the worlds nations, Hamlet’s nothing in comparison

    Aren’t the monkeys already busy writing John Mccain’s talking points and programming FoxNews lower screen scrolls?

    I thought the monkeys were busy writing John McCain’s talking points and Bill OReilly’s autobiography, not to mention the RNC’s explanation for the economy and financial woes.
