Drabble by Kevin Fagan for May 27, 2023

Late to the party

That’s me with popcorn.

Got to be quicker than that Honeybunch.

She new there?

They look like the ground squirrel at Rocky Mountain National Park. Put so many peanuts in its mouth that it finally gave up and put the last one back into my hand.

Just pour the salsa in their open mouths, just like a momma bird.

Look like the chipmunks in my yard. It’s hilarious when they find the dried corn we put out for deer and stuff their cheeks until they are bursting.

Like they care.

Those boys don’t eat, they inhale.

Why did Ralph get the smallest bowl?

Just an excuse for more snacks.

Last spring, I watched a spring training baseball game. A batter was called out; the batter and I had no idea why. He walked back to dugout with a puzzled look on his face. Maybe being out of the batter’s box too long or some other new and obscure rule. I haven’t watched a baseball game since. People say baseball takes too long, have you ever watched a PGA tournament? They allocate 3 hours for a football game, but baseball takes too long. Why doesn’t golf have a putt clock?
