And, I’m Down.

I’ve played Mario Kart. I’ve seen the Three Stooges. It never occurred to me that anyone who is not a cartoon character or a 1950s comedian could actually go down on a banana peel.

I’m here today to tell you that it can happen.

Now, in Mario Kart a happy little banana peel causes some slipping and sliding and maybe a race-ruining crash into the course bumpers.

But in real life they look more like this and they won’t hesitate to throw you to the ground.

I think we all know by now that I’m prone to accidents and falling down, but I’m telling you, this banana tried to kill me. Watch your step.
