You may remember Kats 2000th and 2020th blog.  No? Well you did miss something! In any case here is the official medal of honour for this special event.  It comes complete with postage stamps so I can send it back to myself the next time I'm in Greece.  That Kats…

No I didn't give up hope.  My French Browing Banana arrived today.  This is a brilliant idea.  Sure I saw them yesterday on the banana group blog, but here it is, I have it in my hot little hands while grinning to myself.  "Ha Ha" I laugh. The dog hides under the chair. …

Hot from the mailbox.  What a honorific teacher that Marie is.  She reminds me of Sister Marie   Sauerkraut my 3rd grade school teacher.  (Yes that was her name, I think she came from Germany after the war.)  Darn, I forgot where I was going with this.

Thank you…

     You may remember the 1952 horror movie film called, "The Red Banana".   Well it's back and it wants revenge! 

     If I remember the story correctly, there is this outcast of a banana that the other bananas don't want in their bunch.  The outcast banana hand…
