Oh, Those Naughty Young Rapscallions…

…always up to some devilment or another. If they’re not dropping cherry bombs in the septic tank, they’re setting the mailman on fire. I wonder what mischievous adventure those two ruffians are up to now?

Hey Carl, check it out--there's this cool trick I wanna play on the dog.

    I read the title too fast at first, and thought it said “Those Naughty Young Republicans.”

    PS, I have seen baby gorillas in the state-of-the-art gorilla exhibish in the Bronx Zoo, and they are truly sweet creatures. You would never stay as still for your mama picking bugs off you, as these little guys do. :P
