On Chappy: June 3

A boy recently fell into a zoo gorilla enclosure. This did not happen on Chappy — we have had neither zoos nor gorillas since the early seventies - but I find the story to be an interesting Chappy allegory. As I understand the story, the boy fell into the gorilla’s house while being relatively unattended by his parents. Once in the gorilla’s living room, the boy was quickly more attended to by the primate. There are conflicting opinions as to whether the gorilla was protecting the boy, or had more nefarious intentions.
