Curious: the monkey is wearing a yellow tie... (not the usual red or blue)

Pick your symbolism (mine in bold):




http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_symbolism_and_psychology

COmmon Connotations... Color: Yellow

Sunlight, joy, happiness, earth, optimism, intelligence, idealism, wealth (gold), summer, hope, air, liberalism, cowardice, illness (quarantine), hazards, dishonesty, avarice, weakness, greed, femininity, gladness, sociability, summer, friendship, Gemini, Taurus, Leo (golden yellow, star signs), April, September, deceit, hazard signs, death (Middle Ages), mourning (Egypt), courage (Japan), God (gold). Yellow ribbons were worn during times of warfare as a sign of hope as women waited for their men to return.

During the Middle Ages, both green and yellow were used to symbolize the devil.

2. And whether he puts it in the left or right rear pocket
... makes a world of difference!

No, I'm not explaining this if you don't understand. Go ask Mommy and/or Daddy.

4. Curious George raided the Man with the Yellow Hat's closet
Except that TMWTYH wore a black tie, so the whole joke is ruined. Ruined I say!
