THURSDAY HUMOR

Gorilla Joke

Did you hear about the recent incident at the Local  Zoo? Their famous Gorilla, Gabe, died unexpectedly and he had been one of the biggest attractions – especially for the children. 

Well, since the busy season for the zoo was just around the corner and they did not have time to get a new gorilla, one of the zookeepers came up with this idea.  They had one of the other zookeepers dress up in a complete gorilla outfit and pretend to be Gabe.  This zookeeper really took to this new job and he got to be quite good at swinging from the branches, eating bananas and was fooling everyone. 

One day, however, he was a bit too enthusiastic.  He ended up swinging a bit higher than expected and let go at the wrong time.  He ended up sailing out of his cage and directly into the cage of the lion.  He gulped and was barely able to squeak out a tiny “help!”

The lion sauntered over to him, got really close and whispered back. “Shut up, or we will both lose our jobs!”
