Just like the gorillas I take care of at the zoo, they would rather sleep in than face the public (not that I blame them)

I think ol’ Herb needs a little pick-me-up. I know you’ve got a Dunkin’ Donuts nearby. How about a run? I’ll buy if you fly.

Maybe they should have a coin box for visitors to put a coin in the slot and turn to activate the go-rillas.
