Reps: 753 (power: 0) | | | LOL That's a hoot. Upon closer inspection they look like a type of marsupial. Sort of a cross between a kangaroo and a gerbil.
Oh, btw, I saw your Yatta! response yesterday. LOL |

Reps: 33,304 (power: 47) | | Bingo! It took me bloody forever (read: 20 minutes) but I have tracked down the exact picture he used to make the singing creature. I knew I recognized it so I did a search on all the terms I knew about it: monkey, nocturnal, tree, jungle, etc.
Finally I found I page with lots of monkeys. It is a Tarsier. And here is the exact picture he edited.
Here is what Encyclopedia.com had to say on Tarsiers: small, nocturnal, forest-dwelling prosimian primate , genus Tarsius. There are at least three species found in the Philippines, in Sumatra and Borneo, and in Sulawesi. Tarsiers are about 6 in. (15 cm) long with a 10 in. (25 cm) hairless tail, and weigh about 4.5 oz (130 g). The body is covered with dense brown fur. Enormous round eyes are set close together in a flat face. Tarsiers' legs are specialized for climbing and jumping and end in long, thin digits bearing adhesive pads. They feed on insects and reptiles. They are believed to mate for life and to form family groups. Tarsiers are classified in the phylum Chordata , subphylum Vertebrata, class Mammalia, order Primates, family Tarsiidae.

__________________ "America, we have come so far. We have seen so much. But there is so much more to do. So tonight, let us ask ourselves – if our children should live to see the next century; if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper, what change will they see? What progress will we have made?
This is our chance to answer that call. This is our moment. This is our time – to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth – that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can’t, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people:
Yes We Can. "
