I cannot stay awake for an entire Monday Night Football game. If I plop down in front of a TV late at night I can only last an hour… maybe two before I fall fast asleep. Last nights game was a good one, so I made plans to stay awake for the whole thing.
Before the game started I drove to Walmart and (being secure in my manhood) bought a needle, thread and some buttons. I got a few odd looks from the ladies shopping in the sewing section with me, but I can handle it.
I drove back home, turned on the game, and built this mutant sock monkey while it was on.
I now plan to build an entire army of Monday Night Football Mutant Sock Monkeys. One day, my Monday Night Football Mutant Sock Monkeys and I will RULE THE WORLD Ha Ha Ha Ha…
ha ha… … … … ha… …
eh… … ahem…
…the good news is this did indeed keep me awake for the entire game. I even saw Ben Roethlisberger take the wicked hit to his leg at the end… hope he’s ok… seems to be a pretty good guy…

That monkey is juiced! I’m guessing you didn’t follow any Sock Monkey blueprints. Maybe there is a market for VooDoo SocMonkeys. Stick a few pins in this and see if anyone complains.
Dennis Jones
..this is one strong monkey… look at those arms… I wanted to put a hat on him like Socmo… but his head doesn’t seem to want to cooperate…
Don Jones
Has Karen missed her sock yet?
Dennis Jones
I’m not that stupid… that’s one of my old socks… I’m not really wearing green argyles a lot these days…
Don Jones
It appears this sock monkey has nice dental work.
Dennis Jones
…and a somewhat pleasant personality… well… for a mutant sock monkey anyway…
Don Jones
I’m thinking you could name these sock monkeys based on someone from the MNF game like the Madden trailer. Invert his left knee and this could be Big Ben.

SocMo is in L-O-V-E! He is requesting a phone number for this beauty.

Hey How many socks does it take to make a sweet Mutant Sock Monkey?
Dennis Jones
…hmmm… I’m not sure if this is one of those “how many Jones’s does it take to screw in a light bulb” kind of questions or an honest to goodness question question… so I will gamble on it being the latter and say two…
Denis Kabistan
It’s a Jones conspiracy !

I just got back from the all new Liger Shoppe. Man, my head is spinning. So much Liger merchandise to choose from. I think I left my shopping cart on aisle seven…
Dennis Jones
…Don, there is a fine looking yellow man-bag that I think you would look really nice in at the Liger Shop…
Don Jones
You can’t fool me… man bag… yea right. That is your basic female canvas beach book tote. I will wait until it goes on sale.
Tami
Mutant sock monkeys…be very afraid. Do you guys mind if I post a link to your web site on mine…since I already did it? Just wanted to share the joy (and the Liger Shop)!
Dennis Jones
Hi Tami… Nice of you to drop by Brother Jones again… sure, link us up… and post a comment once in a while like you did in the old days so we can raise the level of discourse around this place…
Doug Jones
Tami… I was just checking our records and I think your semi-annual BrotherJones fees are due. pay up.
Don Jones
I checked out Tami’s site and she out-classes us by a mile. She’s got good grammer and spelling and everthing going on. Instead of listing us on the LINKS page… she might want to create a more appropriate DETOUR page to our web uRL.

URL place, or mine? a little web humor there….
