Where are the monkeys?

[Bad Karma]

The young lady strolled thru the National Zoo and finally paused in front of the monkey island. Mystified as to the whereabouts of the animals, she queried the keeper, "Where are all of the monkeys?"

"They're all back in the cave Miss." he responded, "It's right in the midst of the mating season."

"I see." she replied, "Do you think they'd come out if I offered them some of these peanuts?"

Smiling the keeper responding, "Well, I can't rightly say as I know Miss. Would *YOU*?"
