    ever watch a monkey peel a banana. they do it from the opposite end of most people. the "top" is actually not what people think. and it really is easier to open a banana the monkey way.

    I'm disappointed, they didn't even tear it down all the way. They must not have had the right tool to separate the lobes correctly.

    Good call! I was going to say the same thing.


    I can't find any good pics, but try this at home, people - you can gently separate a peeled banana into three skinny spears!

    Jesus, I don't think you understand how much it costs to bribe governments and pay terrorists.


    Do a search on Chiquita and terrorism. You'd be surprised...

    @OMG! Ponies!:


    in all fairness, they were paying some faction 'protection' money - basically they were extorted. if the mob wants protection money, and you pay it, you're not a willing participant, just a pragmatic one, and frankly the victim in the situation. I actually think their paying off the guerrillas in order to ensure the safety of their employees was the best thing they could have done, given the circumstances. their other options were to close up shop (leaving their workers out of a job) or refuse to pay (putting their workers in mortal dnager) There's nothing any government would do for them, there's nowhere to file a police report. So really the only other, 4th option is to take up arms.


    maybe im a sucker for the way they spun it, but of the three choices, if it were me, i'd have done the same.


    i know it's a slippery slope given that paying them only increases their power and enables them to continue extorting people, but it's a damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't... situation.

    It is scary to read this book review on Amazon:


    The cool thing about this book is the technology within the time banana. It runs OS X and has a neural-net processor.


    What Jason fails to realize is that by toying with the time banana, he is changing the course of modern times.


    Oceans rise. Cities Fall. Hope Survives.

    $16.95 Australian dollars still seems like a lot for a kids book. What is an Australian dollar worth these days?

    "How To Do Everything With Your iPhone by Jason Chen" translates roughly into "Jason Chen and the Time Banana" in Swedish. Isn't this just the Swedish translation of your book?

    This is rather inspiring, and I think I'll have to write the adventures of Kaiser-Machead and the Space Kumquat. And then the sequel, OMG PONIES vs. The Avocado.

    @LindsayJoy's MBP is into S+M: After looking around, seems that the reflection is what Brisbane looks like.


    But then, if the boy STOPS the fire, won't that change the outcome of what Brisbane ends up as? Hmmmm, this fruit may be our undoing.
