It’s Sunday morning and you know what that means, right? It means I’m up way too early and already bouncing off the walls. If everything goes as planned, my ramp will be completed today and I’ll have an easy escape from the house all ready to go. And then, it’s just a little matter of re-teaching myself how to drive using my left foot and back out into the world again, no stopping or holding back.

And all of that is good, but it doesn’t matter right now. I’m still bored and restless. So what is a man to do? Well, there’s Porn Hub, but that would only satisfy me for about three minutes or so, so why waste my time? I really need a good man in my life, with benefits of course. So what to do? I know. How about looking into the infamous Magic Bag and writing about some random topics? Sounds like a plan to me.

And now we reach into the Magic Bag to find the topics for discussion. And we have Snappy, Tab, and Pudding. Oy vey! Well, they can’t all be winners. That’s the fun thing about random drawings. You have no idea what you’re going to get. sighs Well, I’m your huckleberry. Let’s do this.

Snappy…

I guess that means when you do a task immediately and quickly. We’ve all had that demanding authority figure in our lives that orders us to do a task and “make it snappy”., right? I call mine “Ma!”. And then we do a rush-job to get whatever needs to be done completed as quickly as possible, only to know that the previously mentioned authority figure won’t be happy or satisfied with the results. Snappy is quick.

It can also be a person who has a nervous habit of snapping their fingers often or someone who wants to emphasize a comment by snapping their fingers when they finish speaking. I despise those people. They need to have their fingers broken and then be told “Snap at this, mother fucker!”. Maybe that’s just me. But that’s what Snappy is all about. Let’s move on.

Tab…

The diet cola in the pink can. This was a product made by Coke and guess what? It actually tastes great. That pink can wasn’t the most macho thing around and a lot of guys wouldn’t drink it, especially in the ’70s and ’80s because they didn’t want anyone to question their manhood, but it was their loss. As I said, that stuff was good. And then Coke introduced Diet Coke and with the advertising and emphasis on that product instead of Tab, they pushed Tab right out of the market. Tab was discontinued by Coke at the end of 2020. And the world has been a much sadder and darker place as a result. Screw you, Coke! Let’s move on and wrap this mother up.

Pudding…

Pudding is good. I like pudding. I like chocolate, vanilla, lemon, and best of all, banana. If you want a quick snack, eat pudding. If you have a sore throat, eat pudding. If Bill Cosby offers you a pudding-pop, politely decline and run like hell. Now, what was I saying? Pudding rocks. Here’s the Pudding Song. Enjoy.

And there you go. My thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, questions, and pudding cups are all welcome and appreciated. Until the next time, take care and eat that pudding. I’ll see you at the pudding bar.
