"Okay Bobo, I've got the hand controls sorted. How are you doing with the foot pedals? Once airborne it shouldn't take long to get to the Planet of the Apes where we can live like kings and these hairless oafs can kiss our sweet arses!"

On the contrary.. Michael Jackson's chimpanzee Bobo has evolved quite a bit in the years since his untimely passing.

You know what he says to get the blades spinning?

Just.. "beat it"

He's a very simple chimp and thinks flying is easy as ABC and 123.

Welcome to Twilight Zone. Do not monkey around with your TV set. We control the vertical and we control the horizontal.

One can spank the monkey day after day but to truly become civilized one must attain companionship of the opposite sex.
