Overly amused by myself

In my comic book I named the governmental operation to thwart my superhero (named Sifaka, which is the Latin genus name for the leaping lemur) Operation Ban the Monkey

hahaha, we kick ass... I think it is funny because if some ass-hole government types saw a lemur, they would just call it a monkey. and true, it is a fundementally funny word. Plus i could totally hear Bush saying "now, the grand ol' U.S of A will not stand to be fooled but some hooligan, rascal, terrorist monkeys..."

Yeah, the name's going to come out from the Rose Garden meeting, when Sifaka tells them her name (and to shove off, she's nobody's ultimate weapon), and when she leaves they're all like, Sifaka? And the President's science advisor has to explain it. Thus, Operation Ban the Monkey is born.
