Enjoy your banana...but hold it correctly

NOTICE-THIS IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY TONGUE-IN-CHEEK BLOG.

Beat the dead horse! Beat the dead horse, JJ! Me beat the dead horsey, moi.

More atheist nightmare and proof of the existence of Yahmeh, er, Yahweh...sorry, I can't help it...I'm not in control. Meh (I am under the influence of her Mehness, intelliwench, er, intellimeh).

BTW - for those of you who prefer scientific facts to made up bullshit...check out the history of the banana. The contemporary banana, made popular by the U.S. firm, United Fruit Company, which influenced the politics of many Latin American countries, giving rise to the term "Banana Republic", is a hybred.

"The banana as we know it today is a specifically-grown species of the wild banana. It originated from seed bearing relatives in the Pacific and the South-East of Asia. The wild banana was not edible, but it was discovered that by crossing two inedible, wild species, one could grow a sterile plant that bore the banana as we know it today. Because of its sterility, once this new edible fruit was discovered, it was spread using offshoots from the base of the plant."

With this in mind, I invite you to watch the video claiming "proof" of Yahweh's existence.

HEADS UP...if you recently had an operation and are still sporting stitches, you might not want to watch this. Your laughter could bust the sutures. Just sayin'.
