That's right. I been keepin' track ever since the old days back in Africa when I was a little shaver. Why? Who knows. It became a sort of hobby. After I got some education I used to write the number of each banana down on the peel before I peeled it and ate it. Well, I devoured old number 50,000 tonight at one of my favorite clubs, with a whole bunch of good buddies and gals in attendance. We whooped it up bigtime. Drinks all around. Every since I got paid for the big Carelli job I been in the money, and I'm spreadin' it around. Needless to say, I got a million friends all of a sudden. They are comin outta the woodwork. Dames are talkin' nice to me. It's a change. Some people worry that "She don't love me, she loves my money," but I figure life's too short for worryin', right?

Boy, and that was one good banana too. Tree-ripened. Not yer usual low quality stuff. This is life in the fast lane, baby.

Chongo, you oughta try a little thing called "banana hooch." An old Franciscan friar, a botanist, told me about it and give me the recipe. Tastes like ripe bananas and runs about 150 proof. 'Course, if someone shot ya while you was drinkin' it you'd still have a hangover 35 years after you were dead....

But it sure is good.

"if someone shot ya while you was drinkin' it you'd still have a hangover 35 years after you were dead...."

That is definitely the way that I want to go when my time is done. I gotta find that recipe.

Nope no deficiencies here except a slight lead deficiency...for this line of work, I mean...

In my case, figure at least 10 bananas a day on most days, depending on availability.

Yes! We have no bananas

There's a fruit store on our street
It's run by a Greek.
And he keeps good things to eat
But you should hear him speak!

When you ask him anything, he never answers "no".
He just "yes"es you to death,
And as he takes your dough, he tells you...

"Yes! We have no bananas
We have no bananas today!!
We have string beans and onions, cabBAges and scallions
And all kinds of fruit and say
We have an old fashioned toMAHto
A Long Island poTAHto, but

Yes! We have no bananas
We have no bananas today!"

Business got so good for him that he wrote home today,
"Send me Pete and Nick and Jim; I need help right away."
When he got them in the store, there was fun, you bet.
Someone asked for "sparrow grass"
and then the whole quartet
All answered:

"Yes, we have no bananas
We have-a no bananas today.
Just try those coconuts
Those wall-nuts and doughnuts
There ain't many nuts like they.
We'll sell you two kinds of red herring,
Dark brown, and ball-bearing.
But yes, we have no bananas
We have no bananas today."
