ANNOUNCEMENTS

Primate Nooz regrets to report that the circumstances under which Professor M. Ohhohoho was found in the poison-filled basin of the ancient, ant-strewn Amazon are very suspicious at best, and that a meeting of the Advisory Board has been called for next week to decide what to do about it.  Our parent company, the Ralph A. Bennett Teasdale Corporation, spent approximately $1.2 million in its world girdling and months long search for the veteran primatologist, explorer extraordinaire and Nooz roving correspondent. Numerous friends and colleagues of the eccentric professor dedicated countless hours in a vain and until recently fruitless attempt to find him, and many have expressed shock and disappointment at the suggestion that it may all have been a publicity stunt.  Nooz West Coast correspondent Mr. Christopher Shaw, who was preparing to depart for Tasmania when the exciting news arrived of Ohhohoho's reemergence, said “I am deeply shocked and disappointed at the suggestion that this may all have been a publicity stunt, and I can't wait to get my hands around that little shrimp's neck.”  The Nooz will keep its many readers informed as always as to any action taken against the professor.
