The Jagermeister music festival rolled through Davenport, Iowa, on Friday, October 10, 2003. Advertised as 25 bands on three stages, the event at Banana Joe 's lived up to its name. Luckily, the night was a beautiful one. The moon was full, a gentle breeze flowed through the main stage area, and the beer and Jagermeister flowed. There were three stages - two inside, one outside - so if one band sucked, you could go find another. This turned out to be important, as there were some truly awful bands that played - and one band that ruled supreme (articles.directorym.com....54841.html)
The King Kong Collection: Because this two-disc edition adds "Son of Kong" and a personal favorite, "Mighty Joe Young," to the mix, it's the ultimate Kong set, and most a-peeling to banana lovers (abcnews.go.com....id=1363520)
The catalyst was Jen's cache of semi-sweet chocolate chips and walnuts from Trader Joe's. Paleni also provided the secret to making super sweet banana mash which is to freeze the bananas and then let them soften up into a fermented mush (www.americanidle.org....s/2003/09/)
It probably hasn't occurred to Kram that the biggest loser in his book is Joe Frazier, the man who is given co-billing on the cover but second banana status inside. In what was probably the greatest shame of his career, Ali, who had been supported by Frazier when the government stripped him of his title, cold-bloodedly cast Frazier as the champion of white America during his comeback - a subject, by the way, that has already been handled, and well, in HBO's superb documentary last year. Frazier's failure to rise above Ali's slight is as tragic in its way as the Parkinson's that Frazier's fists helped put in Ali's body; Frazier now seems as debilitated by hatred as Ali is by disease. But Kram seems willing to grant Frazier the role of victim that he has chosen for himself, and in doing so both unwittingly secure for Joe the eternal status of Appendage to the Ali Legend (www.salon.com..../27/books/)
Donovan, who brought out the Mellow Yellow album on Columbia Records in 1967, said he had not known until several years ago that McDonald, best known as front man in Country Joe and the Fish, was only somewhat miffed about his fellow singer's success with the banana-bliss song because he himself had tried smoking peels before that jingle came out (www.swamppolitics.com....g/2007/03/)
At my restaurant we marinate the meat over night and i suggest you do too. I think cooking it in a covered pot on top of the stove with the rest of the marinade is the best way of cooking this dish. i don't think the banana leaves add any flavor but many people do so i line the pot with the leaves and cover the meat with more leaves before i put the lid on. This is not for flavor but i can then say on my menu 'cooked in banana leaves' and the customers really like that. 'oooh cooked in banana leaves, so authentic.' any way, you want enough liquid to come up about a third or halfway up the meat. Cook it at a bare simmer for at least a couple of hours- checking to see that the liquid doesn't boil away. if you don't have enough marinade add more juice or better yet, chicken stock. it's done when you can pull it apart with a fork. Serve it on a big platter with enough of the coooking liquid to make it like a sloppy joe. Serve it with lots of hot tortillas and yucatan pickled onions maybe some guacamole and dalsa of your choi (www.chow.com/recipes/10833)
The turbulent 1960s passed none too quickly with its political / sociological upheaval and in gangland we saw for the first time warring within the various crime families - the Gallo / Profacci War and the Banana War . As the 1970s dawned gangsters began not only vying for newspaper headlines, but now television airtime. Mortal mob enemies "Crazy Joe" Gallo and Joseph Colombo were the media targets of New York City and the city knew how to promote them. Both flamboyant characters would meet brutal, albeit well-publicized ending (www.crimelibrary.com....dex_1.html)
Indeed, "MARVIN'S MARVELOUS MECHANICAL MUSEUM" represents amultidimensional body of work. For all of the album's euphoric moments, asense of gravitas often comes through. Darker themes are explored, expressed inmeditations on the surreal, interminable, and existential ("Ruler ofEverything"). Intrigue and mystique remain ever present. Tally Hall has already scored a wide range of high-profile TV exposure ,includingappearances on CBS' "Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson ," MTV's "You Hear ItFirst," and VH1's "Best Week Ever." "Good Day" - for which keyboardist AndrewHorowitz won the BMI John Lennon Scholarship Competition - and "Hidden In TheSand"were both included on episodes of Fox's "The OC," while the Caribbean-flavored"Banana Man" soundtracked a number of episodes of MTV's "The Real World: Key West." In addition, a cover version of the Killers ' smash, "Smile Like YouMean It," was among the spotlight tracks on 2006's "MUSIC FROM THE OC: MIX 6." The band has drawn national attention for its inventive videos, largelydirectedby guitarist Joe Hawle (www.reuters.com....MW20080221)
The Bionic Man doll got along well with the G.I. Joe dolls whohad fuzzy facial hair and kung-fu grips. They also had a coolhelicopter that had a goofy elongated seating compartment becauseit would have had to be a much larger toy if it were really toscale with their bodies. So it was like a Heli-Banana-Copte (letters.salon.com....dex97.html)
For the past couple of years, since the summer Joe turned ghetto, I have felt like I live in a rap video - rappers crowding the camera frame above me, looking down like they just kicked my butt and are ready to do it again . As my husband, David, and I have watched Joe take on the gangsta swagger and pout, we have wandered around like the iguana in Eddie Murphy 's "Dr. Dolittle," muttering, "So young, so angry. Damn that rap music!" What did we do that our kid has embraced such a dark view of the world? Where did all we raised him with go? Where did who he was go? The star athlete, the student leader, the boy who wrote screenplays and directed the neighborhood kids in films, the kid who composed music on the piano so beautiful that other mothers cried . . . He thuggin? Oh he a thug. On da real. Looking back, there was no way that summer could have been normal . It began not with a party at the beach or a banana split. It began with me taking off my wig.
