Monkey Cloning

You may have heard the old theory about "an infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of typewriters could type the complete works of Shakespeare".

Well, here's the part you probably haven't heard. Someone actually tried to do this.

Danish scientist Lars Hansen took this theory very seriously - as luck would have it, his job was Monkey Cloner at the University of Copenhagen. He had spent the last few days just cloning monkeys non-stop, knowing that monkey infinity would soon be arriving.

"This one, it's this one!" he yelled excitedly to his assistant Noah.

"Oh my God", said Noah, his beautiful eyes widening.

Three it was, in front of them, monkey number infinity.

Then the monkeys became self-aware, and realised there were more of them than the humans. They decided that they would each kill one human, travelling around the globe, led by monkey infinity.

Monkey infinity gestured towards monkey #289994 and #9011.

"Kill", monkey infinity said. And then Lars (human #289994) and Noah (human #9011) were both dead.

Monkey infinity laughed with satisfaction, knowing that he would never have to kill anyone himself, as there was no human infinity.

So just remember... there's a monkey out there with your number on it.
