"'Tums' for the Tummy"

       Shopping at Bed, Bath, and Beyond, I came across "Tums" on one of the shelves and had to smile.  In my growing up days listening to radio, there was a product called "Serutan" for some kind of similar stomach problem most kids are in no need of yet, but with the prevalence of the commercial, it was hard to avoid hearing, and it always ended with, "And remember, 'Serutan' spelled backwards is 'Nature's.'"  Having fun with words was down my alley; therefore, I approved of this product even though I couldn't have told you exactly what it was for.

       But it occurred to me at some point that "Tums" would never have tried it.  "And remember, 'Tums' spelled backwards is 'Smut.'"
