I really enjoyed the creativity and humor that went into these stories. To show my appreciation, I can at least contribute summarizations of the tales. Here's what I have so far. May future monkeys feel less daunted, or perhaps more so in case my summarizations suck.
General summary: Members of this board add to an interactive story. Nuances of their personalities show up strongly in terms of a broad sense of humor; references from America's past, present, and sometimes future; and brilliant reactions to situations that are very surreal.
To do: Tales 7-10, 11-onward.
Special thanks to Doc for the formatting in the talk thread!
