"Monkey" is a racial term? Never heard that one before! Well, I've heard of porch monkeys, but thought that had to do with drug dealers/partiers who hung out on porches! Guess I've lived a sheltered life...lol~!

Congrats on your new frog

people are nuts. i used to call my niece "bu" which is short for "Abu" who is the monkey on Alladin. it started cus i called her monkey and that was around the time that movie was popular and i called her Abu which turned into "bu" and my sister said it sounded racist because she was half black! puh-leeeeze!

now people call each other "boo" all the time what is that supposed to mean anyway!

congrats on the new "frog"
