Yes, it is time for another Day of Dougie. I’ve been inspired lately. Thanks, Eric. And I’ve been writing regularly again. It’s not just wrestling anymore. But anyhow, it’s nearly 5:00 am and after sleeping most of the day yesterday, I’ve been up all night. It’s nearly time to go to bed again, but I want to try and sneak one more thing in before I go.
And that thing, it’s this right here. The Magic Bag, three topics of discussion, and one more piece for the site. Damn, I need a life. So let’s just jump right into it, shall we? The topics of discussion will be Seafood, Weekly Episodic Television, and Bread. Oh, wow! Three winners here. It happens sometimes. Let’s roll.
Seafood
I see food and I eat it. Well, all except for seafood ironically enough. I like a few things like popcorn shrimp and the stuffed crab, but for the most part, I don’t care for seafood. And why is that? I worked for not quite three years when I was a teenager at a restaurant called Jimmy’s Seafood. I started as a dishwasher, but it didn’t take long to move to the other side of the kitchen as a Platter Fixer and then as a cook. It was a cool job, especially for a seventeen-year-old, but I got tired of smelling like fish all the time. And tired of dealing with fish all the time. I just got burnt out on fish, period. And then I worked later in my life for almost twelve years, in three different stints, at a Convenience Store that served food. And guess what we served every Friday. You guessed it. Fish plates. My cat loved them, but I hated the smell and it would make me sick. So, no seafood for me.
Weekly Episodic Television
This is the term that WWE uses to describe their two television programs that air once a week, every week, with no time off or breaks. It was created strictly for bragging rights as to the length of time those shows, Raw and Smackdown, have been on the air. The only other shows that I can think of that have aired so consistently for long periods are shows on News Channels like CNN or Fox, or maybe something like Face the Nation or Sixty Minutes. The term is a WWE creation and I guess it makes sense.
Bread
Bread makes good sandwiches. When it’s ready to snow, it’s a must-have, along with milk, even if you don’t eat sandwiches or drink milk. It’s also a slang term for money. And I can’t think of anything else to say. My bad. It’s not just for breakfast anymore. How about that? That’s enough for now. Let’s wrap this up.
And there you go. My thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, questions, and suggestions for topics to be added to the Magic Bag are welcome and appreciated. And with that, let’s wrap it up. I’m going to bed so I can get up in three hours and go to Walmart. I have to pick up some prescriptions. I hate that damn place. Take care and be well, my friends. Make every day a Day of Dougie. You’ll be glad you did. I’ll see you at the Motel 6.
