Going for melons
Reuters reports:
Stop smiling. We're the melons.
Inspired by the television reality show, Czech public radio and television broadcasters have announced that on November 7, they will begin airing a new show that will follow the lives of four gorillas living together at the Prague Zoo.Just my kind of reality show. They should try it in India with politicians. Throw in a couple of monkeys from the Sangh Parivar, some apes from the CPI(M) and CPI, and chimps wearing T-shirts that say "Laloo Mera Bhalu" and "Main Mulayam Hoon." And see them go for those melons.
The show, to be called Odhaleni (Discovery), will see the primates -- one male, two females and one baby -- battle it out for a grand prize of 12 melons, a delicacy for gorillas.
Stop smiling. We're the melons.
