            <title>Westpac: Yes, we have no bananas</title>
            <link>http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/westpac-yes-we-have-no-bananas/</link>
            <description>So banking is like bananas.&amp;nbsp; And facing a storm like the tragic one in Queensland a few years back that hit banana growers hard.&amp;nbsp; Or so says the following Westpac video.



Some people think it was silly.&amp;nbsp; Condescending, even.&amp;nbsp; Maybe they think a disaster caused by banks isn&#8217;t the same as one caused by nature.
 
Me, I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s silly. Like Forrest Gump said, life is like a box of chocolates.&amp;nbsp; Except now it&#8217;s like a banana smoothie.</description>
