Here is a funny thing related to bananas:<br>
<br>
My second-grade daughter did poorly on a recent spelling test (it was<br>
incredibly obvious she hadn't studied--nay, hadn't *seen* the words).<br>
Her teacher wrote the correct spelling after each mispelled word. For<br>
example, if the mispelled word were "ornge" the teacher would have<br>
written "orange" after it. I about died laughing when I came to this<br>
one:<br>
<br>
"bnana" -----------------------------------> "yellow"<br>
