Jo-Jo… So many questions.
At first I thought Jo-Jo was wearing leopard skin Depends. Now I wonder how the leopard hide was cured, cut, and stitched into ‘tighty leopards’, and a lepoard skin bikini.
Then there’s that knife. Not just the big giant cross guard, but rather, where’s the sheath? Certainly can’t be just tucked into those briefs.
I do like the perfectly coiffed lion’s mane.
Personally, I couldn’t restrain myself from giving the tied up maiden a spin before cutting her down.
Oh, that’s where that banana went! I’ve been looking for it all day! Wait, why do you look so disappointed and revolted? It’s still good!!
I’m surprised that Tarzan didn’t ask Jane if she wanted some of the banana.
Jane – “I’m not so much concerned about the banana in the front of his… uhh… tighty leopardys, but the suspicious bulge in the back!”
Wow! The lion has better hair than Tarzan!
“Whoever she is, can I eat her?” Tarzan is probably wondering the same thing.
