Stem, provides a convenient appendage for peeling.

That is the only time I have *ever* heard of a part of a fruit referred to as an "appendage."

They find them appeeling?

As far as the Monty Python episode, that's the one with the student asking about the pointy stick, right?

Yes, I saw it. Plus Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Haven't seen "Meaning of Life", or "Complete waste of Time" though. Did see the HBO special, where they were sitting around, after one of the cast members had died, and they had his cremated ashes on the table n front of them. Cute scene, when one guy knocks it off and spills the ashes. They are all arguing about him, when one guy goes offstage, and comes back with a Dustbuster. The others got mad at him.

I use the stem method, and I have a friend from China who peels it from the butt end. She does have to use a knife though.

They make handy sextoys, at least according to those videos I've seen.

I can't say I've heard that one before. I'm curious though, how do they mess up your immune system?

You're meant to peel them?

Wow, so wait a minute...is this kinda like Zaia's technique where she breaks the banana in half?

Sounds like! See, I'm not weird and zany! ...Well, at least not in reference to bananas and peeling, I'm not.

And hey! You keep your 'pointed stick' away from me, y'hear, Iguana?

Sorry to burst your bubble, Zaia, but I have been called weird more times than I can remember... trust me, if you want any form of credibility in this or any town, don't associate with a man who creates Moose based rebellions simply to keep himself sane...
