APE MANIA
 
 
At the end of March, 2006, a friend who works with the guys at ApeMania.com called me and said that they needed someone to fill in for their regular Dr. Zaius for a costumed appearance.  I jumped at the chance, and here is the process that took place to make me an Ape for a Day!  I also have the clip from the TV Guide Channel show where we did the bit...http://www.apemania.comshapeimage_3_link_0
