Subject: FW: monkey
A tourist walked into a pet shop and was looking at the animals on display.
Whilst he was there, another customer walked in and said to the shopkeeper,
"Can I have an art Monkey please". The shopkeeper nodded, went over to a
cage at the side of the shop and took out a monkey. He fitted a collar and
lead, handed it to the customer. "That will be £5,000" said the shopkeeper.
The customer paid and walked out with his monkey.
Startled, the tourist went over to the shopkeeper and said, "That was a
very expensive monkey. Most of them are only a few hundred pounds. Why did
that one cost so much?". The shopkeeper answered, "Ah, that monkey can
use 3DS MAX and MAYA- very fast, clean models, no mistakes, well worth the
money".
The tourist looked at a monkey in another cage. "That one's even more
expensive! £10,000 ! What does it do?". "Oh, that ones a programmer monkey;
it can design particle systems, write code, some even calculate. All the
really useful stuff", said the shopkeeper.
The tourist looked around for a little longer and saw a third monkey in a
cage of its own. The price tag around its neck read £50,000. He gasped to
the shopkeeper, "That one costs more than all the others put together! What
on earth does it do?". The shopkeeper looked up and replied, "Well, I
haven't actually seen it do anything, but it says it's a producer."
