it was a movie too
the banana story certainly is a theoretical evolutional heresy with certain appeal to claims it is real but it's all just a big fallacy Join the effort to unravel AIDS/HIV, unfold Proteomes, fight Cancer, compare Fiocruz Genome and fight Muscular Dystrophy with Team EvC! (click)

Re: it was a movie too
Bananas have appeal And they make a decent meal, But an argument agin Evolution doesn't win If the data isn't real.

to an anti-darwinian
There once was a professor, now fey. He'd say, "Bring your arguments my way! Dawkins is a laughingstock. ”bout my theory I won't talk." "How do you like them apples?" He'd say.

Re: For them as doesn't know it...
In America, when you say been, We all knows it rhymes with Ben; Not with in-between. A true Brit it'd seem, Would also more likely say lend.

Been is ben?
If been is ben, then is teen ten? With teen as ten, then is mean men? Does this young Yank deserve a spank Or is he on English keen, but it beyond his ken?

Re: Been is ben?
If you're on this side of the Atlantic, As a Brit you'd likely get frantic. There's no U after O; M-E too must go, And our spelling sure ain't systematic 'Round the world when you say meter It's sure that it rhymes with Peter Yet R before E In the U.K. it'd be Which I actually think is much neatre.

Ode to a Blue Bonnet.
There once was a boot and a bonnet. And fun could be had there on it. With a bottle of Gin and putting some in a record was left upon it. Aslan is not a Tame Lion

It's cheating, I know To rhyme "know" with "know" And rhyming with May strike you as wily But that's the way limericks go.

A Contribution
There once was a man with a boat All creatures it needed to float The scared minotaur Was hiding ashore And Noah forgot the poor goat! ------------------------------------- God meant to create with class But he had a problem with gas Try as he might Nature took flight The Big Bang shot out of his ass! ------------------------------------- Some search to develop their sanity Some seek confirmation of vanity Yet here we are Beneath our star Without answers except for profanity!

Re: Happy Birthday!!
I want to include my congrats. Happy Birthday, and many more, Phats. I'll write them in verse (And typically terse). Now how do I finish this...? Rats!
