1. Good, she was a dumb monkey for ever starting.

2. Peer pressure

She probably thought it made her look cool, too.

3. You would think an animal would know better.

4. I heard they had tried putting a patch on her the only spot without hair

But she kept ripping the damned thing off her ass.

5. Who lit the cigarettes for the chimp?

I remember years ago (late 60's) visiting a large zoo and watching adults throw lit cigarettes into the monkey cages, and the monkeys would "smoke" them.

Sounds like for poor Ai Ai it was "showtime" every day.
