Building 18's Most Wanted
I just got in to the office and unpacked my laptop bag to find a little Spanish banana (!) in the side pocket; I took it from the conference center in Barcelona on Thursday and forgot about it.
When I went through U.S. customs yesterday, I reported in the most blase fashion that I was not carrying any produce, which, as it turns out, was a lie, and I think that might be a felony.
In any case, here I sit, back at work; an accidental felon, an inadvertent scofflaw, with one small, browning banana.

Here's a tip for you, that I've always found useful in living my day-to-day life of being not-in-jail.
- When you commit a felony... don't admit it publicly in your blog. Especially when said blog is tied directly to your real name, and place of work. It makes it way too easily for the cops to find you that way. ;-)

So you answered the famous produce question incorrectly. If you had contacted the famous Thomas C. Tips first, you would have known the correct answers to all the questions asked of you on the "exam." He has ALL the correct answers! When we read sometime in the future that bananas are no longer grown in the State of Washington, we will know who to blame.Anonymous
