Excellent

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I will never look at a banana the same way again. LOL I read somewhere that there a disease that's effecting bananas and the growers are having difficulty saving their crops. Good luck with the contest.

Bananas are perpetually dealing with disease, so there's typically a countdown until the next replacement strain of bananas has to take over as the dominant one. It's a fascinating subject. Thanks for the kind wishes! Of course I don't expect a banana entry to ever win a contest on this site, but I can dream...

Oh yes, you're my kind of primate, sufficiently off the level to deserve six stars from me, 'cause I don't often find anyone whose prepared to write crazier stuff than I do. I'll be watching for more from you, uh uh uh uh uh uh ...

Julie, thanks for the very kind review! If you want to see more banana shorts, I've got dozens of them, and the previous one is always linked somewhere in the author notes. I see you are new to the site, and looks like you have some great stuff. Thanks for stopping by : )

Oh of course,! That fool, Custer, and the Sioux!
BTW (not my own work):
There was a family of Sioux
Occupied in making shioux
Which they dyed in various hioux;
But did they make them to ioux?
Oh no, they sold them for bioux!
Stay well/peculiar, fellow weirdo,

Hi there,

I'm pretty certain this one won't win but to be honest, it made me spit my tea out this morning so have some shiny stars.

God, I hope this one does well.

Thanks so much for the big six, big G! I can't imagine ever winning one of the site-sponsored contests on here though. There is a crosshairs on Harambe at all times. Such is the life of a celebrity gorilla. If Harambe ever won, Harambe might spit out his banana, and that would be a terrible thing.
