they look perfect for a peanut butter "N" banana milkshake!
I'd never heard of this so checked the net. I did not know this was a thing.

Actually it sounds pretty good. I've had lots of peanut butter and banana sandwiches. :)

Funny, guy I knew in the navy. After a night out drinking he'd make peanut butter and grilled cheese sandwiches, they weren't bad. A bunch of us crashed at his house one night. Been bar hopping for hours, way to much alcohol. He insisted we stop at an all night grocery, got plenty of white bread, peanut butter and cheese. There were 7 of us... The mice were angry because there was nothing left, someone even licked the knife in the empty jar! 🤣

Don't think I've had one since...

Edit to add, he said it was a thing they ate in Maine.

During the 1956 presidential campaign, Democratic candidate Adlai Stevenson was considered a rather intellectual contender among politicians. At one of his events, a woman in the crowd called out to him "Senator, you have the vote of every thinking person!"
Stevenson called back to her, "That's not enough, madam; we need a majority!"

There's a story here. When I was in fifth grade and we had these inane drills, the kids knew the power of The Bomb and some of us asked what the heck this would do to help us. Bear in mind, we were also told to hold cafeteria trays over our heads or open heavy text books and hold them over our heads if we weren't near any other kind of shelter.

The teacher openly said that nothing would help us if a bomb were dropped on the school, but that if a bomb was dropped near enough that the shock wave could knock lighting fixtures and ceiling tiles loose in the school, these methods would help us end the day with reduced risk of physical injury.

That made sense to us and we didn't put up any fuss from there on out during these drills. In fact, we tried to think of better ways to shelter from falling glass of fluorescent tubes and other nonsense in the ceilings.

All in all, we were not too bright were we. "Get under the desk and put your head between your legs" (And kiss your ass goodbye.)
