Hello everyone,
I'm trying to translate a part of John Irving's novel The Cider House
Rules and I've come across several expressions I can not cope with....
Could enyone help me with those:
"They had corned the gossip market."
and
"...a retired physician who thought that President Teddy Roosevelt was
the only other man in the world besides himself who had not been made
from a banana." (?be made from a banana?)

bones;..."
Thanks very much!
Marketa
