If anyone knows how to pronounce 'Ieoceie', I'd love to hear it

We have been dealing with a bit of a tragedy at the house recently.  A missing-persons report.  Amiri's Little Tiny Baby Monkey (TM) did not report for bedtime entourage duty one evening a couple of weeks ago, and continued AWOL after many thorough searches.  Although we were sure he was still in the house, we just couldn't seem to find his hideyhole.  We invented stories about the monkey having gone on a vacation, but Amiri knew what was up and took it kind of hard.  He asked me once during a heart-to-heart talk whether I thought the monkey was cold and lonely, or if maybe a tiger had eaten him.

But that's all turned around now!  Ring the bells, LTBMonkey has been found!  Amiri was even the one to find him.  (In the boys' closet, behind the seldom-used ironing board, under the container of vacuum-cleaner bags.  Of course.)  So in the spirit of relief and reunion, I present a getting-reacquainted interview featuring the primate of the day.

I think the LTB Mondkey needs some diverse companions. Perhaps a Texas armadillo or longhorns?
