A Tale of A Fateful Trip

Just finished watching Gilligan's Island Season 1. Hard to decide which castaway had gone more insane from the isolation. By the end I'm thinking that a gorilla featured in the plot isn't really there, it's just a manifestation of their collective psychoses. That last shot of it skipping along merrily with a mate is haunting.

But in a way, aren't we all like that gorilla? And isn't every gorilla us?


I do think it's time to change the name of the human race to Gorillas-R-Us. It would be more accurate. Plus it might throw the aliens off when they invade, for just that split second we need. I mean when we tell them they might be confused. Something to think about. Though if the aliens turn out to be talking gorillas, that could really throw in a monkeywrench.
