Underblog here bringing you the latest MonkeyNews. The Tokyo Galley is now showing paintings by Asuka, a three year old chimpanzee.

The chimp’s painting style is seldom subtle. She attacks the canvas, whacking it with a stiff brush, but usually keeps her strokes within its boundaries. Asuka seems to favor yellow and red — the colors of her favorite foods, bananas and apples. Her minders say she seems to draw satisfaction from her work.

Pakistan’s Daily Times has the full story.

Another great ape, who goes by the moniker “underblog”, is returning to university at the weekend. I hope to be able to continue blogging but if it comes down to a choice of either pissing around on the internet or getting a degree, I hope I shall have the will-power to make the correct one.

Finally, check out the surreal antics of UKIP “star” Robert Kilroy-Silk, aka the orange slimey creep off the telly. (Requires flash, NSFW)

–Update: You can see some photos of Asuka painting here. To be honest, she’s rubbish.
