Curious George and “The Man”
As BQ sat watching Curious George this morning it occurred to me that of the two main characters of this show, George being one, the other is simply named “The Man.” Wouldn’t you think after so much time together the relationship would move forward to more than just, “Me Monkey, You Man?” I mean, I just saw this monkey bowl a perfect strike after rolling a ball down the street. You’d think he could come up with a more personal title for his roommate.

Perhaps it’s a metaphor. Deep!
I think my husband looks like “the man”
I think it’s actually out of respect for the famous author H.A. Rey, who wrote the classic series of books. The name of the “man with the yellow hat” was never identified in the books. Maybe they’re just following his lead?
