    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.

    @tobedetermined: I think there will be LOTS of interesting Amazon reviews on this by the end of the day.

    $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.

    The reflection looks like a mega city, kinda like Evangelion's Tokyo-3 for an added bonus!

    @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.

    1) Clearly, a Time Banana is Mrs. B's vagina.


    2) What aren't you doing with it?


    3) Laughing at the village you just had firebombed.


    4) It's a metaphor for Mrs. B's "time banana". It's rather nasty down there.


    5) Yes.


    6) Clearly, the bowl cut is making a comeback. It looks HAWT! on Zachary Quinto.


    7) It's a metaphor for Mrs. B's chosen "profession" wherein she walks the street at night, tempting little boys with rides in her "time banana".


    8) Noted pornographer and he had it on a good tip that you'd be an excellent subject.


    9) Turn the page and see what happens next. It involves farm animals and butterscotch.


    10) No, but Steve Jobs would have given it four stars as he did on his Amazon page for this book.

    Is it a Time Nannerpuss?


    Besides, that can't be you. There is no technology or McDonalds food stuffed down the pants of the character shown.


    BUT, you should check the back for the standard "not based on anyone living or dead". If it's not there, talk to Ponies!.

    @Woooot!-Offing_GitEmSteveDave: I love the opening Paragraph to this book.


    "So How did I, Jason Chen, get into the middle of a dark night, in a strange place smelling of fish sauce and fresh bananas?"

    The reflection is a city because that's the FUTURE version of that area. See? it's a TIME reflection...or something.


    Or maybe fire creates cities?

    I think all your answers will parallel Homers, in the "Mr. Sparkle" episode.
