CATCHING MONKEYS

The way to catch a monkey is to use a box with a small
opening at the top- big enough for the monkey to slide
its hand inside. Inside the box are nuts to lure the
monkeys. The monkey will grab the nuts with its hand
and forms a fist. When the monkey tries to get its hand
out, the opening will be too small for the fist to come
out. The monkey has a choice to either let go of the
nuts in order to escape or to hang on to the nuts and
get captured. It is sad that the monkey will hold on to
the nuts and risks being caught.

"Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the
other man to die."

u know, this trick is used by african tribals to catch monkeys. then they gave it salt to eat. so monkey gets thirsty. monkey is tied to a tree for 2 days. it get's so thirsty that it goes directly to the hidden source of water that only monkeys knows abt. so the african tribals trick the prankster.
