The Search for the Fountain of Youth

“Amigos, we have almost found the fabled Fountain of Youth. I can feel it,” Juan Ponce de León said with as much enthusiasm as he had when they had started their search through Florida.

“You always say that,” said Francisco, “What makes you so sure this time?”

“Look at these banana trees. These bananas are much smaller than regular bananas. You could almost say they were . . . baby bananas! We are close, muchachos!”

“These may simply be a smaller variety of banana. I doubt it indicates ‘youthfulness,’” said Sanchez.

“And what about this alligator . . . in a diaper?”

“You dressed it that way!”
