    In the next Scooby-Doo series, the gang will move from debunking ghosts to debunking the History Channel's Ancient Aliens; the show will fail when they try to pull off that one guy's disguise, only to discover it's not a fright wig, it's his real hair.

    No, Gale Crater is named for Dorothy Gale, who mistook it for Oz shortly before dying of cold and lack of oxygen.

    The BANANA is a vegetable, not a fruit.

    Researchers at the Univ of Lima, Peru have painstakingly analysed the seeds of two plants- the banana and the pumpkin, and have concluded that they bear a striking resemblance to one another but for a variation in size, which they reckon happened early in the Cenozoic. And because the banana cannot pull its weight around the other contender, they have draped it under the vegetable label of the vine produce.

    The Univ of Lima have started serving boiled bananas in their canteen.

    Thank goodness, because the only thing they used to serve were Lima beans.

    Bananas are used to being insulted! If
    they could speak they would inform you
    they quite enjoy being eaten.

    What is a man, and what is his banana? They are nothing, for the banana is neither fruit nor vegetable, nor is the man.

    Baseball and Golf have the same roots. They both took off when farmhands were asked to get rid of spoiled potatoes. The development process drifted apart depending on the age of the farmhands; the idea being to either clear the fence or sink it into the compost pit.
