I Remember Old Banana

I remember old banana
When the spring was newly coiled
I remember all the attributes
In which he was embroiled
I remember his Toyota
And his Volvo and his Saab
I remember quite distinctly
His escaping from the mob

Peter, i could see why you'd think that

Joe, I could say it ain't so, but it counts only if "Joes" say it

"make it so"

I got a flickering of Shoeless Joe Jackson in the interchange...maybe why I don't wear white socks.

I still am a 'crazy' although with all the steroids and cheating of late, not as nuts as I used to be. Pity.

Baseball players used to look normal, it was one of the few sports where they looked like we did.....but with steroids, not true anymore

...which was why I stopped watching foo'ball ten or twenty years ago: aliens with injuries and diminished chances of having kids...thanks to the farmasuitical industry.

"When the spring was newly coiled" what original use of
language. It could be a car's suspension coiled and ready
as a metaphor of the season or it could just be straight up
memory of a guy when spring was ready to bust loose. Loved
the word plaiy Johnny. I always escaped the mob in spring also.
I guess we want our sweat to smell like fresh blooms. easy
