Green Banana Story

This is Feb. 10th, and it is still the middle of winter. Not much is happening, so how about a little chit chat.
We had 2 feet of snow yesterday, because it started snowing on Monday. It continued all day Tuesday, and ended early Wed. morning. Where I live in my son's, home, there is a stone block front porch 10'by12' with 5 stairs down to the drive-way. Well I, 90 year oldster, shoveled that whole area 3 times yesterday! I only incurred a few aches and pains that a Tylenol took care of this morning.
There is a snow ball bush in the front yard that has a bird's nest near the top just off the front of the porch. I noticed the nest after all the leaves dropped off this fall. Well this morning, there was 6 inches of snow on top of it so that it resembled whipped creme topping! Really quite pretty.
While shoveling the snow, I was thinking about how many people die while doing just exactly what I'm doing. When I came in, I read an article that talked about how WW II vets are dying at the rate of 1,000 per day. I'm one of those vets, and I think of dying often. Where I am living now, it is so pleasant, that I would like to die here. But, as you all know, I am not in charge of that.
How about my title? Perhaps I've told this story before but I don't recall. This story will last in your memory, perhaps forever.
This older gentleman went to see his doctor. He mentioned that he had not been to a doctor for many years, and he wanted to know what the tests would reveal, "no matter what". He added that he wanted to hear the truth, the whole truth regardless of what it is. After the doctor finished with the examination, he called the man in. The doctor finished reading the test reports and was pondering before he looked up to talk to the man. Then he said, "If I were you, I would not buy any green bananas."
This story came to mind when I was shopping with my daughter-in-law, Hedy, and all the bananas at the store were green. She walked away, but I called her back I told her she could buy some, and she did.
From now on whenever you will see green bananas, you will remember this story.
