- An alternate hook could be "... that space pioneer Miss Baker routinely has bananas on her tombstone?"
- I think we should save this for fish day, without the picture. Example: ... that a Miss Baker went into outer space with sea urchin sperm, later receiving a rubber duck and many bananas for her efforts? Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:17, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
- Sure. April Fool's day would be fun. -- ke4roh (talk) 23:25, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
- Would be nice for April 1, but without the image to ensure that we don't take the suspense out. --Redtigerxyz Talk 16:07, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
- Naturally. Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:14, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
- Here's another pic that might be suitable for suspense [1]. -- ke4roh (talk) 19:15, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

- Good. I have another ALT. ... that at age two Miss Baker went into outer space with sea urchin sperm, later receiving a rubber duck and many bananas for her efforts? Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:54, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- That would work, or a little more ambiguous: "... a Baker went into outer space with sea urchin sperm, later receiving a rubber duck and many bananas for her efforts?" -- ke4roh (talk) 02:19, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
I think we have several good hooks, so this is good to go! Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:42, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
