Today, I needed to buy a bagel from the cafeteria.  I haven’t purchased one in years but today, I was extra hungry.

Now, the cafeteria has one of those nifty slicers where you put in the bagel and push down on the cutter.  Well, when I pushed down on the cutter, my bagel disappeared.

Was this some sort of a magic device?  Where had my bagel disappeared to?  I checked behind my ear but no bagel.  I looked up my sleeve, but no bagel.  Finally, I pulled out the cutter and there was my bagel, or what was left of it, all rolled up in a ball at the bottom of the slicer.

Next time, I will use one of those cheap plastic knives on it.
