<AIOHost> I started, one awhile back, called "The Knowlage Animals" but it sounded too much like JJAF.
<Jeff Parker> Yeah, it's hard to do something really different.
<JackDavidson> I didn't know about Marvy and all that...though...
<Jeff Parker> We struggle with it too.
Anonymous98 is now known as Paul Family.
<AIOHost> So, I wrote a script for Jungle Jam...I will send it to you sometime.
<Jeff Parker> Great!
<AIOHost> It's called: "A Monkey's Carol" its a spoof off a Christmas Carol, it's pretty funny.
