| Apparently the monkey owner gave out the wrong number, and some guy posted shortly afterwards:
"Wrong number for spider monkey
This guy has been woken up with calls all morning, he does not have a spider monkey."

| If anybody wants it, I might be able to have it shipped to you parcel post or something. It can't weigh that much.

| You should get it, then set it loose in an elevator full of people with cups of coffee. |

| I could get it and let it loose in the library at school. We've had a cat before; why not a monkey? Maybe we could train it to go find books for people or to get coffee from the coffee cart.

| Well it's pretty darn funny if it was serious. But even if it wasn't and it was a joke, purposely putting the wrong number on Craigslist for a free spider monkey is pretty stinking hilarious in my book. I can imagine the guy getting pissed after 12 straight calls asking him for his spider monkey...

I mean, you'd think he would have tolerated two or three people... how many must have called to get him frustrated enough to go post his own entry on craigslist? I didn't know spider monkeys were that hot of a commodity.

| I might take a free spider monkey... I'd at least call about it and ask a bunch of ridiculous questions. |
