Don't worry, just buy a nice bunch of bananas for your physical and emotional well-being. 

However, you could further indulge.

Perhaps try watching some repeats of Bananas in Pyjamas. 

You could take the opportunity to improve your knowledge on the banana.  Its nouns, adjectives, synonyms, derived terms, foreign language meanings, pronunciation, racial significance, freudian relevance etc. There is also the banana's significance as a figure of speech, its allegorical meanings, not to forget its relevance as a metaphor or analogy.  Really a limitless subject. 

Just think Red of all that time you will have researching, talking about and writing about bananas. Engage your analytical mind.

You don't need to worry about footy or searching for salacious stories contained in case law and the ratio decidendi or obiter dicta of your extensive law library.  We have enough salacious [censored] bits from other posters on this thread. That just lowers the standard and of course the tone. Wrong side of the tracks and all that.

    Funny you should mention bananas, as I had a banana smoothie today that was excellent. It was at the bakery cafe on Burke Road near Toorak Road in Auburn I think the suburb is.

    The smoothie was ice cold which I love and contained honey, cocoa, chia, skim milk and magnificent banana.

    Demonland and this thread have a great deal in common with the great Leonard Cohen who spent six years of his life before he became famous on the Greek Island of Hydra. This book explains what kept him alive during that time.

    Growing your own bananas is very therapeutic.

    Greetings lawyers and other ne'er do wells.

    Your good old Uncle is heading orf to Westralia tomorrow, followed by a trekking adventure to Darwin.

    I shall be avoiding scat throwers in Freemantle and attempting to turn Demon frogs into road kill.

    The maid shall remain at The Manor, so no doubt I will be inundated with beautiful women hoping to accompany me.

    Be assured I shall put them through an arduous selection process.

    One trusts you might run into Ethan somewhere in the glorified ore mine that is WA and impart some of your provincial wisdom upon him.Perth seems to have given him delusions of social adequacy.

    Will one of your fine servants be chauffeuring you and the missus in the 4WD Rolls? If not, you may want to contact Demonland's very own Westralian frog. I hear he's a terrific driver and loves a jolly good flogging. Safe travels Uncle, make sure you turn your watch back 30 years

    if he does cross paths with the Frog i can only hope he reverses over the same path to be sure .

    Ernie, I think a Freudian slip has engaged the auto censor, tidbits may be what you were looking for. Uncle B on the other hand would no doubt be thinking TlTS

    Uncle, sounds like you are traveling with your friend Alter Ego.  

    Don't bother with the selection process, just take a sack of money, you will need it. Remember, they will not have seen a photo of you. 

    In case all goes pear shaped, take a bunch of bananas for entertainment. May also come in handy if you get lost in the never never. 

    Oh, one more thing, you better make sure they have motorized buggies for your "trek."

    I must say I was quite chuffed by all the above encouragement .It resulted in a very emotional discharge 

    Trawled through a few pubs last night. Must say there was a surprising number of drunks and derros about the place. I would usually thrash such types but I considered that Ethan may have been one of them and demonstrated considerable restraint 

    re your queries dc

    No “Special” guests.

    I had considered WA’s quarantine laws and thus wrapped my offending pinkies in glad wrap pre flight. Nevertheless I was approached by a sniffer dog at the airport. Oddly the poor beast had some form of convulsion and began foaming at the mouth. Fatigue I suppose

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
