GNN - Bubbles Jackson, close friend and confidant of late entertainer Michael Jackson, missed the opportunity of a chimp lifetime. Michael Jackson "pestered" surgeons for four years to surgically enable Bubbles to speak, so Bubbles could share his "thoughts" with Jackson.The surgeons are reported to have refused to perform the operation because Bubbles wouldn't survive it, rather than impugn the asssumption that sentience depends upon a biological arrangement in the vocal chords.
Bubbles, who is now 26 and living in a chimp shelter, toured with Jackson in the 1980's, and even shared Jackson's bed in those days.
