- Who'll love it
- If you count yourself among people who need a good giggle, this one's for you. Good for nights when you want to switch off and laugh.

- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
Another of the "Variety Views" continuing adventures with Shorty the Chimp getting loose and running amok. Tired of waiting at the fire house for a blaze, Shorty sets one in the building himself. At another fire, Shorty makes a jungle-style rescue by climbing hand-over-hand on wires leading into a building.
