Tonight as I was driving from the library to pick up Eve from her singing lesson, As It Happens was on CBC and Carol Off was interviewing some guy who has a banana museum. The last part of the interview I heard before I arrived was this:
Carol Off: So what are some things you have your eye on at the moment?
Banana Museum Guy: Well, there are some things on eBay, including an 11-inch brass banana that I'm bidding against some other people on.
Carol Off: How can there be competition for an 11-inch brass banana?
Banana Museum Guy: You'd be surprised.

Oh, so THAT'S who has been bidding against me...
I'm sure I would be. Surprised, that is.
