So we got this memo from the Gods of Head Office, and I was reading it� laughing hysterically the whole time. It said:

�remember, there is a strong consumer interest in banana-berry combinations�.

Personally, as a consumer, I can�t say as I have ever had much of an interest in banana-berry combinations. Honestly, I hate bananas. They taste like fruit-flavoured wax. Maybe it�s some kind of Freudian thing, I don�t know. I just hate bananas. Especially the banana-berry muffins at work� when you go to bake them, the muffin mix smells like somebody ate a bunch of bananas and then puked in a bucket. Kinda looks like it too. How appetizing.

Head office�s statement doesn�t surprise me that much. They�re also the same folks who brought us training videos with such captivating statements as:

�Slicing bagels is a leading cause of injury in North America.�

Wow, somebody better get to the emergency room with this information right away. Can you believe I've actually wasted more than 24 hours of my life watching these things?

W.O.V.�s brother is fostering a newborn baby. They came over and took us out for lunch, which was really nice� was sweet of them to take us out, and we haven�t seen enough of them lately. Poor Oscar, though. He was so jealous� he thinks he should be the only baby ever.
