Hulk Hogan gives back Monkey

Are any of you watching "Hogan Knows Best" on VH1? We must admit that we aren't. There is only so much faux-reality-disfunctional-family-loving-their-kids TV one can watch in a lifetime, and we're afraid we used up our quota on the Osbournes.

We apparently missed a heartbreaking episode of the show. The Hogans already have a couple of birds and eight dogs, but mom Linda wanted to take in a rescued baby monkey, too. Sounded like a good idea, until the family quickly got tired of baby-sitting the mischievous little monkey. I guess the 15 diaper changes per day might've gotten to be a bit much. So, Hulk put his foot down, and the family returned the monkey to the rescue group.

While we respect the family's decision to return the pet once they realized they were unprepared to provide the proper care, we take the wrestler to task for his attitude about the upheavel their poorly conceived adoption might've caused to the monkey: "Well, don't feel bad. We'll just look at it as, you know, we tried really hard and he had a great vacation. And he got to know the greatest wrestler of all time."

Hey Hulk, how about we kidnap you for a couple of weeks? That way you can have a forced vacation at our house and get to know the greatest blogger of all time! (Funny how the experiences to which we subject our pets take a different meaning if we think about putting ourselves through the same thing, isn't it?)
