beanstalk

Recovered memory cases had been “sprouting up like beanstalks,” but “once the reversal happened, everyone reanalyzed it,” Franklin’s attorney said.

The beanstalk, though, hadn’t stopped growing, and was pushing right up through the newly created edge of the overhang.

Austan Goolsbee, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, has likened surging productivity to “magic beanstalk beans for the economy. … You can have faster income increases, faster wage growth, faster GDP without generating inflation.’

A gigantic beanstalk grows out of a medieval peasant’s posterior, and another peasant says, “I told you they were magic beans and not to eat them.”

The beans grow a massive beanstalk up into the clouds, and the pair go on an exciting, slapstick-filled mission.
