My fiancee can't stand peppers - which is why we don't buy them.
Mind you, he doesn't like salads (or vegetables much) either. The vegetables he eats are potatoes, peas, baked beans and spaghetti.

It's probably because he's an ex-chef.

I recon bananas are the fruit of a herbaceous plant.

But you've thought about it though haven't you? haven't you?

Cool poems Alf - think best poetry comes from very ill or people who are on a high - one of my fav poems was written by a man who suffered from illness (it was mid-evil days so not sure what it was) the nature of the illness is that he got awful fever at night times drove him to hallucinate, but was fine during the day. He made the poem to be a dialogue between him and the fever, the described his fever as a shy lover who only visits at night, gave him so much pain and so much pleasures, gave him highs and lows, and in the morning no trace of his lover is found.

I recall WH Auden who attributed most poetic inspsiration to Influenza - wais it Yeats or Colleridge who was continually ill ?

Anyway - Ive got it all here in my head - all that remains to be said is -

Look at the Sky
Look at the River
Isnt it Good ?

What about banana trees? Are they trees? or plants?

Aren't trees just BIG woody plants?

Where they fought the Vikings.

The Native Americans sold popcorn as they watched the battles.

Popcorn, whose manufacture was handed down to them by the Greys.

Banana "trees" are classified as herbaceous plants. So they are plants, and also herbs. They are not trees.

But they do walk though.

[TimberWolf]

They are plants though.

Trees, mosses, grasses and algae that is.
