In Search of Sungudogo by Greg Laden.

Sometimes called the "fourth African ape," Sungudogo is not a Gorilla, not a Chimpanzee, not a Bonobo, and possibly not even real. Years ago, Sungudogo drew the interest of the world famous primatologist Dieter Phillips, who was funded by a secret society of "scholars and gentlemen" to launch an expedition to determine the veracity of this mysterious primate. Dieter never returned from that expedition, and as the years passed, the whole story drifted into obscurity. But the watchers were always watching, always waiting, for clues of the fate of this expedition. When new evidence came to light, the investigation was renewed into the outcome of Phillip's ill fated trek into the Rain Forest. Who better to follow Dieter Phillip's tracks than his former student, aided by an explorer and mercenary familiar with the area, assisted by two willing Congolese park guards?They were to learn things that went beyond their wildest imaginations, and they would discover secrets about Phillip's expedition, about the rift valley, about themselves, about humanity, that they would never be able to share but that would change their lives forever.

Pro Tweeting Tip: Sometimes you just HAVE TO make a point in refutation of some dumb#ss thing someone said. JusT so THEIR followers can see how totally wrong they are!

But first check to see how many followers they have. If it is fewer than 24, and it often is, reconsider!

Pro tweeting tip: If you are retweeting a message you really dislike, to complain about it, then you are promoting an issue you don't like, no matter what words or negative GIFs you attach to it.

Pro Tweeting Tip: Avoid linking a policy position with a constituency. It just exacerbates existing divisions that make your message weaker or lost, and it is probably not accurate to do so (remember, honesty is rule #1)

Pro Tweeting Tip: If an elected or candidate you prefer displays an imperfection, saying "this individual/what they said is OK but ... yadayadayada..." then you just REDUCED rather than INCREASED the net support that person gets. That would be an own-goal.

The only patriotic act that counts, that you can do on this 4th of July, is an act that weakens and repels anyone or anything that has to do with the Republican Party, at any level or in any form. #EndTheGOP #EndTheNRA
