I just happen to have a copy of the banana scale for you.  :)

The Shade Tree Howler Monkey scale was originated by Larry Soo,
here's how the banana's rank:

1 banana  = easy

2 bananas = moderately difficult

3 bananas = pushing the limits of a stock howler monkey;
                   opposable thumbs only get you so far

4 bananas = requires the ability to communicate abstract
                   ideas to other howler monkeys

5 bananas = the job should only be attempted by a professional 
                   orangutan
