Crazy chimp attack

I had the following conversation with a homeless person the other afternoon, as I forked over a dollar. 

"Hey slim," he goes, "What do you think about the lady and the chimp?"  

"I think she crossed the line." 

"It's crossing the line, sleeping with a chimp. It's like sleeping with a dog." 

"I think she might have had problems." 

"Well, she's paying for it now...." 

This was a new one: instead of chit-chat about the weather, or the price of a big mac, he engaged me on the topics of the day, like a radio talk show host elliciting opinions from his listeners. It was very welcome: I've run out of people I can talk to about the crazy-chimp-attack story without seeming ghoulish.
