Has anyone here ever encountered an escaped gorilla?

I was reading the story about the gorilla that escaped from the Dallas zoo and was reminded of the time that I came face to face with an escaped gorilla. I forget exactly where or when it was but I do know that I was scared as hell. My fear was intensified by the fact that I had been smoking some pretty damn good reefer before the fateful encounter.

I ran from the gorilla and crawled into the cab of a bulldozer that was parked in the area. From my vantage point I watched in horror and the gorilla tore people to shreds. Limbs were tossed into the air like confetti.

The gorilla killed about thirty people and then saw me sitting in the cab of the bulldozer. He charged. Several giant leaps and he was at the door, his face a mask of anger as he tried to pull the door off the hinges.

I cowered in the corner and feared my life had come to an end. But then I heard a distinctive "pffffffffffft" and a poison dart struck the gorilla's neck. The gorilla died instantly.

I looked out the cab and noticed my African friend, Tubongo, standing near a grove of trees with his handy blowgun resting near his side. I waved and he waved back, smiling and giving me the thumbs up signal.

I wish I could remember more about that horrific gorilla encounter, but, like I said, I was pretty wasted and the time and location, I'm afraid, have been lost in the mists of time.

But anyway, that was my encounter. Have you ever encountered an escaped gorilla? If so, where? And when?

No escaped gorillas in my past. But I've had a couple of girlfriends that drove me to the corner in fear. Does that count?

I am an experienced gorilla wrangler.

They are quite gentle, and your friend is a murderer, and you are full of it.

Have a nice day, though, youall. Hear?

...is it possible that you came in to contact with King Kong? Sounds like that tropical reefer you smoked contained hallucinogensÂ…or maybe you just had a very bad dream from watching too many Tarzan movies.

One time I answered my front door and a gorilla was standing there with a bunch of balloons. I screamed and nailed it with the bow and arrow I just happened to be holding. Imagine my surprise when I found that it was my girlfriend dressed up as a gorilla to surprise me for my birthday!

Thinking of some dates, but never mind, whatya mean poison darting gorillas? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

In real life in my new small home town, we have a wee zoo. In this zoo is an older orangutan. He is, I think, 54. I'dna like anybody messing with Bill....
