Monkey Monday

Hey Jammers! It's Monday, and you're in for a treat! We have some monkey madness for you guys!

Here are some fun facts about these wild animals:

"Monkeys are known to be highly intelligent and capable primates. There are more than 260 known species of monkeys in the world. They are classified into Old World (from Africa and Asia) and New World (South American) monkeys.

One can easily identify Old and New World monkeys because Old World monkeys don’t have prehensile tails. Monkeys range in size from the Pygmy Marmoset, at 5–6 inches (15 cm) long from head to tail and 4–5 oz (0.11 to 0.14 kg) in weight, to the male Mandrill, almost 3.3 ft (1 meter) long and weighing 77 pounds (35 kg). Most monkeys are tree-dwellers but some live in grasslands. Monkey live in groups called missions or tribes and have a strict hierarchy.

Monkeys eat a variety of foods, such as fruit, insects, flowers, leaves and reptiles. Old World monkeys have special pouches in their cheek where they can store food. Many species of monkeys are regarded as highly intelligent and often kept as pets, used in science experiments and some have been even sent to space." -www.livescience.com

 And here's a video about these amazing creatures:

Well that's all for today!

The AJSB News Crew

A History of the AJSB News Crew

Quietly I walked through the empty hallways. Dust was spread across the floor like butter on toast; and everywhere I looked was purely isolated and silent. “When will I see her…?” I muttered to myself.

There she was. As if she had read my mind and answered the call of worry, she was standing there by the door; a small leather notebook clutched in her jaw tightly.

“I have arrived.”

I nodded for her to come in, and she did so with great enthusiasm. She plopped herself down onto my desk chair and spun around in it wildly. She had such a cheery personality – it was impossible to become angry at her. Even if she was about to break my chair! I smiled at her but she only looked at me expectantly. “Well?” she said slowly.

“Oh yes,” I had spoken, remembering why I summoned her to my office; “are you ready to hear your assignment?”

She grinned and followed me through several rooms until we reached a tall and dusty ladder. “Climb it.”

She nodded and pounced onto the ladder. After a minute or so she was at the top; I was following close behind her.

We entered the reporting room – a place dedicated to writing and broadcasting news around Jamaa. The only thing the room ever contained was a map, a microphone, and some notes that had been pinned to the smooth, dark-colored wall. She looked around and sighed contently, and I couldn’t help but do the same. It was a lovely sight. Whenever you entered that room you’d feel so accomplished; so worthy of a title. It made you feel important!

The microphone stood untouched and dusty in a small corner. She began to drag it into the center of the room, directly in front of the map. “Better?” she mumbled with the microphone still between her teeth.

“Hmm,” I replied; “a little to the left.” I gestured with my paw.

After a long, tedious hour, we had finally gotten the production equipment set up and ready to use. “Casandra,” I spoke to the purple-colored arctic wolf standing before me; “test it out.”

She didn’t hesitate to do so. That’s what I love about Casandra189, she never back-talks to you. She’s always positive and obedient, and she gets the job done as soon as possible! I smiled at her as she cleared her throat. “Read your lines, Casandra.”

She nodded.

“Gooooooooood Morning Jamaa! It’s time for your daily news report! I’m your host, Casandra189! I’m reporting live from 2fan—“

I cut her off and slapped my forehead in frustration. “Casandra.. um.. you aren’t supposed to say you’re reporting from my basement.”

“Right.” she responded, clearly embarrassed.

“It’s okay, just don’t do that when we’re actually on air!”

She laughed. “I’m such an idiot!”

Weeks went by, and every day Casandra189 would bring her notebook to my den; it was always full of enriching and well-written articles based on Jamaa’s current happenings.

All of her assignments were done ahead of time. She wasn’t one for procrastinating. Things were going perfect.

But as the blog became more popular, I knew I was going to need more help. How would I tell this to Casandra? Well, I had to tell her sometime, I knew this. “I’ll tell her next month,” I told myself; “Yeah. What could possibly go wrong in a month? Casandra will have it all under control, I’m sure of it! She’s all the help I need and will ever need.”

Little did I know that my trust in Casandra would fail me. Not because of Casandra, but because of myself.

A few weeks went by. The blog wasn’t at all exciting, nobody really cared much for it, and our production videos were what you would call “monotonous”. It was about time I faced the facts. I knew the blog would get me nowhere. It only had a few views; sadly those few views belonged to either Casandra or myself! That means nobody cared about it. Nobody. Not even one person other than us.

As for the videos.. well.. they were trash. Somehow we managed to destroy the well-written articles and turn them into 2 minute segments of uninformative chatter.

Life went by though, and I did enjoy Casandra189’s company very much. She kept me from being lonely. Sometimes my best friends isabellamozarella and Sparkle10156 visited me. But that was all.

WORK IN PROGRESS >> MORE OF THE STORY IS COMING SOON!

The Color Charity

What is the COLOR CHARITY?
The Color Charity is an organization that I've started to help non-members get colored items.
What does this charity do?
Me and dozens of other members help with this cause. We buy lots of colored nm items and put them on our trade lists. Then we accept ALL trades from non-members!
Is this helpful?
This is VERY helpful to non-members! The organization was started on 3/27/14 and has helped over 900 non-members get colorful items!
Want to help?
Jam-a-gram me (2fangwolf) and ask for a role in this charity. Remember, you MUST be member in order to purchase the colored items.
Non-member and need some help?
If you're a non-member and want a colored item, simply comment your username below this post. We can arrange a date and time to meet up and trade. And don't worry, it'll be WORTH IT! I'll trade as many colored items as you want. We also have a nm store at colorcharity's den. It offers a wide selection of colored items to purchase (for free). Every item in the store was donated by a kind, compassionate member.

In new item news, we have the returning Pirate Chest!

 These are beta age items with updated colors, and are being sold in Jam Mart Furniture after their little vacation away from the Mystery Emporium. Now I have some really neat new videos...

 This video AJHQ posted is pretty amazing, watch it below!

The shelter they're visiting is a little bit like the one I volunteer at myself. Be sure to check out your local shelter to see if you can give a helping paw – we can make a difference!

Thank you all so much:)

imaamazingperson123 - she's back

So as you know, imaamazingperson123 has scammed many Jammers over the past few months (look at my other posts about her for reference). She even admitted to scamming!

And I was constantly checking to see if she was online. Most of the time, she was. But she suddenly disappeared after admitting to scamming. My first thought was: Animal Jam banned her after they found out she scammed. But now, I looked at her player card, and her animal has changed looks!

She seems to have gotten new items, and her wolf changed colors. And yes, I did check to see if she just switched animals. But she only has two animals, and they have both changed. This means that she came online and changed her look. Well, if she came online, she hasn't been banned! Or maybe she was banned for a few days? I mean, who knows, she could have just been on vacation. Anyway, the point is, imaamazingperson123 is back. So watch out! Keep calm and Jam on ^.^ bye!!
