Nice. I'm gonna whine like a little tramp now and not-so-silently grouse over how I almost went out and bought my own hat but waited in the hopes that one would be bestowed upon me. Yeah, I didn't want to be a poser. Maybe once Matt gets his carcass back here and does a BASE with me, I'll get the woiks.
Well, see you at Disneyland. BRING MONEY.

Hey Kev. I have a feeling that you shouldn't get too hopped up about a monkey hat when there is a new club forming as we speak. I happen to be #2 of this certain "club". If you have any questions jsut ask your favorite DZO to show you his cool new tat.

Is that the one E did for him? I'm all about the SB. Except I was thinking I would be SS (sushi). :P

I'll talk to SB1 about it. Do you have the tat also?

Dude. You are the MAN! I look forward to the opportunity to BASE with you, John, and I promise to carry the SONIC BEEF name proudly.

I'm probably setting myself up, but is there an initiation, and does it entail drinking myself into a stupor from 2pm on and running the 20-30 miles to my home? :P

In the beginning there was one Skymonkey and he wears his number proudly. That is the way it was and still is in most places. Around our area people know people and all these people used to be around "1" alot. He is a very cool character. Also it helps to trade harley and skydiving parts in order to gain the authorization to present the hat of monkiness(SP?). It still doesn't hurt to bring an "A-10" or "V-Twin" with you everywhere you go in order to sauce up the "1" upon said visit. Once a Skymonkey you then gain the right to create new members. It is a very secret org that only a few thousand have been good/lucky enough to be a part of. I would actually not mind hearing One's input on it too. Just to clear the air since I might have gotten this on one of our "good" nights.
Also there are currently 4 members of a new sky borne organization: the SONIC BEEF Club. More coming later.

Only 2 monkeys are numbered, Chuck and another. Name SkymonkeyTWO :ph34r:

Here are Chucks thoughts on becoming a Skymonkey:

You must either party, jump, or jump and party with a member of the clan. No, you can't name yourself, and no, you can't have a hat unless you get it through me.


Looks like someone has himself a counterfeit hat :S

Not true, unless SM1 makes you a proxy and even then you may nominate someone and run it by him. He is the one who gives out the hats and the names, not all Skymonkeys have names and no you can't choose your name or ask for one.He and SM2 are the only numbered monkeys. I think you might want to talk to Chuck and clear things up.

MonkeyLip told me the story of how he got named. It was pretty amusing. John and Chuck are driving down the road in silence one day and out of the blue Chuck says "From now on you will be known as ... MonkeyLip". LOL ...

I have no Monkey name. Heck I'm not even a Monkey. I guess I didn't party hard enough the times I have been at events with SM1. [:/]


Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Just like all good legends, it changes from person to person. Add a little alcohol, or anti-freeze, and the tale takes on a heartbeat of its own.

I believe Matt 1st and Scotty next. It's all true, every last bit of it. Many a good seifu will change the requirements for passing on their legacy after much deliberation and recuperation from partying. :P

Ditto
When I was made a skymonkey, this point was made very clear.

LeRoy - this is a personal attack so brace yourself...

You're an idiot! You know the deal. Chuck and Kip L are the only 2 guys that can give you a real monkey hat. You've been begging for one way too long which is why you never got one. Now you're attempting to cheapen the :ph34r: tradition and it's truly pathetic. Why don't you guys come up with something a bit more original?[:/]

You have just moved yourself out of my good standings. Do not ever attempt to PM me ever again. After sticking up for your dumb ass time after time this is the last straw.

I feel painfully sorry for you.

Well, I think the head lady Monkey just put it plainly. The "real" monkeys have spoken.
