Tom the Dancing Bug by Ruben Bolling You wanna know if I saw that movie? I don't NEED to. I'll tell you the TRUE story of the... THE RISE OF PLANET OF THE APES For millions of years, there were tons of DIFFERENT KINDS OF APES on Earth. Australopithecines, primitive chimps, and lots, lots more. Then, long ago, through a quirk of evolution, ONE PARTICULAR APE SPECIES suddenly got much more INTELLIGENT. This ape developed CULTURE and TOOLS and TECHNOLOGY and became an immensely successful species. But it was still an APE, and its increased BRAIN SIZE didn't change its ape-like lust for DOMINANCE and TERRITORY! Charley: So, as its success caused it to spread into every corner of the world, it was still cruel to each other and other species. Charley: So, yeah. Humans ARE a type of ape, and we literally LIVE on a planet of the apes. Man: Aw, you're just bitter 'cause you're an australopithecine! Charley: Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!
