Hey Morgan, wanna get a cuppa joe ?
Nah, Friends is on.

would have smashed the primates together at near-light speeds.

Umm...this is some GOOD coffee !!!

The collider, which was to be built within a 45-mile-long circular tunnel, would accelerate monkeys to near-light speeds

Moooooooooorrrrrrrggggaaaaaaaaaaaannnnn.....
Waaaaaaaaannnaaa cuuuuupppaaaa joeeee ????

before smashing them together.

Dammit Morgan, you got your peanut-
butter in my chocolate !

Scientists insist the collider is an important step toward understanding the universe, because no one can yet say for certain what kind of
noises monkeys would make if collided at those high speeds.

{garbled} ing coffee !!! Dammit Morgan !!

"It could be a thump, a splat, or maybe even a sound that hasn't yet been heard by human ears,"

Tarzan could not be reached,
for comment.

"How are we supposed to understand things like the atom or the nature of gravity if we don't even know what colliding monkeys sound like?"

Colliding monkeys. Isn't that pornographic,
somehow ?

Now, with funding cut off, the future of our nation's monkey collision program looks bleak.

There's always stem-cell research !

Congress began funding the monkey collider in 1983, after Reed convinced lawmakers that the U.S. was lagging behind the Soviet Union in
monkey-colliding technology.

Democrats readily funded the
Bi-Curious George campaign, however.
The above is satire.
I hope you laugh as much as I did,
while writing it.
