Another round-up of some of the best motivational posters from around the web

How will the Banana Rate?….According to Google.

In a bid to produce the most utterly pointless, yet compellingly readable post on the internet. I’ve searched Google for all the fruits I could think of and find at Tesco Online to produce the definitive list of “What is the most popular Fruit in the world”.

Method:

  1. These are based upon Google searches with just the fruits name, I used Google UK.
  2. I did consider typing for example “apple fruit” to discount all the many hits Google would return for Apple computers (and ipods) – but in the end I thought no, the fruits impact upon contemporary culture and industry is all part of the popularity rating.
  3. All result are as of 19 July 2010, results can vary by region and time.

And so I give you the top 20, in reverse order. There are a few surprises.

Mystic Clegg

See the mysteries of the universe unfold under the strangely detached, sort of looking bravely into the future, gaze of the Deputy Prime Minister.

All your questions answered by … Mystic Clegg

Dear Mystic Clegg: I work on a Malaysian Rubber plantation. It’s my job to cut the trees and then tap the latex sap so it can be later collected …….. Please Mystic Clegg, can you tell me how deep the cuts should be?

Mystic Clegg writes: The mists are clearing. The mists are clearing. I see cuts. The cuts should be deep. This is the time for deep cuts, but not cuts so deep that the tree dies. Cut, as indeed you must, it is a time for cutting, but be like the wise gardener who cuts back in the knowledge that this provides the foundation for future growth.

Come on you Spurs.

Well, it was a pretty good goal….

Stumbled upon H from Steps Grave today, I didn’t even know he was ill!

It’s a simple modest grave, for such a well known star of music, even though Steps split up in 2001 we all hoped one day they’d regroup….poor guy was only 33.

RIP H from Steps
