"Hasty Pud Tickets"

[Wilson Gray]

An unfortunate subject line. Of course, the reference is to Harvard's
Hasty Pudding theatrical society. OTOH, I have seen "pulling one's
pud" expressed in print by British authors as "pulling one's pudding."
Perhaps  there's simply no getting around the inadvertent
double-entendre.

All say, "How hard it is that we have to die!"––a strange complaint to
come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
