If I've forgotten anyone, I apologize! Please email me or PM me and I'll correct it! Feel free to tweak and change as you like -- my geographical definitions are the product of my own imagination, so change it around as you see fit! Please feel free to update this list with new info or members while I'm out. I'll be on vacation starting tomorrow and back on the 12th. I'm taking my PC with me so I'll try to check in while I'm away. Now we must begin mapping the banana's journey....


It is time. Edited to remove geographical groups.

Technically, since Minnesota is right above Iowa, Swami, Tiggertramp, and Lost Scottsman should all be Midwest.

Sorry to disappoint, Beav, but just for porpoises of this deal. Texas is and always will be a proud member of the Confederacy.

Crap! I started a new thread when I could have posted here. Sorry

Thanks for the info Catt and putting this all together! I'm hoping to see CSTL this weekend for pics of the banana. I don't know if I should hand it off to him to bring up to Canada or let it makes it's way up there by mail. Suggestions?

*smooch*

But only if the banana is comfortable being naked.

That is a good question Nookie. When it was a hard plastic banana , it made more sense for us to carry it across the border.

I think since it can be deflated, maybe after it's made the southern tour and gets up to CQ, she can carry it across to Pepe still just to save all the customs hassles.

I'd ask her and Pepe though. But that sounds like the easiest way.

We should take the pic together! I can be in Virginia Beach in about an hour, depending on traffic on 264!

CARP. I guess itd make more sense to send it to the peeps in TN and then to Beav, and then me....


for some reason, I thought Beav was SE of where he actually is.

So.... looking at your map, is Clinton taking a pic with the banana too?

Not to nitpick, but why is the banana going from NY to VA and then back to NY again?

It isn't in order -- it's just grouped together. I'll leave it to the folks in the group to decide how/who/when/what order the banana is shipped.

I need to be in the West/Southwest group. I'm thinking from Dweezil to the STL peeps to me to TigerLily and then out to the Left Coast.

Oh yeah, and what exactly are we supposed to do with said banana once it arrives? Pictures (posted here?) and what else?

You think we could talk SurvivaBear into adding a "Banana Handlers" page to the Family Album?

I imagine we'll just take pics and sign the banana. That's why I'll be including some sharpies with the banana.

I might be able to meet up with Spanky too, if he's still around. He's in Central/East-central Texas, if I'm not totally off base.

Breezy is in Michigan I think, and BEG in Ohio. Survivorscott is in the Orlando area. CTSL, of course, lives next door to Nookie.
ETA: Why isnt Pooh on the list? Shes in TX isnt she?

The geographical thingy made it easier!

Is that it's not Packer season or I'd try to get it to a game.

I might be able to find Barry Alvarez (coach of the WI Badgers) to pose with it at Camp Randall....

I'll try to get MandyM to pose with it also! Circus World Museum is in her hometown. Maybe she can ride an elephant with the banana.

Since I am further left than the left coasters, does this mean I am last? And did we decide there should be a time limit on keeping it? (so as to keep it moving along)

I like the separate album idea, kinda like the passing of the torch for the Olympics, the passing of the banana

And if I am last I send it back to Nookie, right?

Do Ginger and I get twice the time with the banana since there are two of us and we are doubling up on the photo op?

I count 43 peeps. Now if each person kept it a week and you figure a week in the mail between each one, that is 86 weeks, which means I wouldn't see it for like more than a year and a half. Just sayin. And you peeps all give me a hard time for livin in paradise. It has its drawbacks as you can see.

Exactly. Well and with a limit I could guestimate when it may actually come to the islands so I can know about what the weather will be for photo ops, ya know?
