Magic Banana?
Feb. 11th, 2004 12:16 pmOn my way out of Lowry from lunch, I grabbed a banana. I had that banana in my hands until I got into my car.
But when I got out of my car, the banana was gone.
Now, there are a few explanations for this. First is that I'm a klutz and probably just dropped it. And you'd like to think that, wouldn't you? But I know the truth. This was a magic banana, and not meant to be eaten. And when it understood that I was taking it for a mid-afternoon snack, it tore a portal open through time and space and disappeared, perhaps destined to become part of a still life in someone's art class.
Or, if it was truely special, this was a Fortean banana, quantumly unstable and incapable of remaining in one plane of existance for more than a short time before disappearing and re-appearing somewhere else. And perhaps, perhaps I was one of those few blessed to have actually held such a mythic fruit before it left this plane, perhaps never to return.
Regardless, a quite remarkable piece of fruit.

Which, given that it can be made into bannana bread, might not be a bad thing.
New, from Glad: Overripe Bannana Car Freshener!
Mmmmmmmmm. Banana Bread...

Date: 2004-02-11 02:58 pm (UTC)Episodes of the Justice League prove this. Batman just jobs occasionally to make the other cape-wearing nancy boys look good, so he can keep writing the Watchtower off as a tax loss.
Even if...

Pretty sure.
