Story 324

The Drag Bunt

When young, Juan learned to drag bunt. But later as a major
leaguer, he would grunt, when asked to lay down the bunt.

His thinking was that if the brunt, of his hits were the

mere bunt, he might as well quit his hunt, to be in the

game's forefront, and see his picture in every storefront.

Story 325

Hiccoughs or Hiccups

When just a pup, Pedro would sup, his supper, so fast that

he would invariably, hiccup. “ Coke and Pepsi, would just
make him throw up ! The only thing that worked, was a cup,

of 7-Up. Believe me, this is not any gup!”

Story 326

Gus Is Calamitous

As a waiter Gus, wasn't a plus. He would cause a fuss, and make the

customers nearly cuss.

Well, one day. Mr. Russ, his boss, pulled him aside and said, "Gus, I'm

serious, you're simply calamitous. You cannot wait, and you cannot bus.

Thus, you'd best head out on the next bus. We have nothing further to
discuss.”
