Rain reigns

About to go to dinner and water starts coming from the sky. What is this phenomena .?!?

 

Lucky I bought a kilo of bananas for $1. Bananas are a great thing, invented circa 1500AD by genetic agricultural scientist Wilhelm Steinkopf who intended to create a fruit which was

  • Able to be consumed cleanly and easily single handedly while driving a tractor
  • Easily portable with a protective outer husk (now known as the peel)
  • Easily consumed without the use of extra tools, knives, or machinery
  • Able to fit into pant line to double up as pretend guns and the husk used as booby traps against infidels

And what a fantastic job he did at that. Other competing scientists came up with the durian, coconut, and orange, all of which are messy, disgusting, or prohibitively heavy. You can't pack a durian in your rucksack for a nice day trip for example. Nor can you eat a coconut while talking on the phone and driving stick. And let's not get started on prickly pears...thank goodness for these guys.
