i found myself in duane reade last week - not like that should come as a surprise. if i had a financial advisor, i'm certain the first thing he'd tell me to lose is my fixation with pharmacies. i'd probably be a millionaire in no time. - on the hunt for some fun-tak, to aid in my sprucing up of the new office space. we all remember fun tak, right? that awesome blue stuff that superbly held up all our NKOTB Big Bopper posters? exactly.
in the first DR i went down the ravaged school supply aisle, and while finding a whole sleeve of duane reade brand "putty tak", there was no fun-tak to be found. i was a little disheartened, but figured they had just run out of the superior tacky substance, and i'd find it in another outpost.
so later in the day i hit up another DR and was completely dismayed to only find packages of putty tak. has the company forsaken fun-tak for their more blandly-colored, infinitely less enjoyable sounding putty tak?
i haven't had the time to investigate this matter fully yet, but trust me, i will be. i'm loathe to think that DR has taken all the fun out of my wall decorating.

Ooo - we call it blu tak over here. Or Smurf poo.
We used to have a white version called 'pritt tak', but it was nowhere near as good. Mainly because it wasn't blue. Or 'blu', I should say.
its amazing what dropping an "e" off can do, huh?
and what is "pritt"? is that a word for something sticky? or did they just think it would flow nicely with the word tak (as it does)?
Pritt is an entire line of gluey, um, products. Pritt sticks are awesome, mainly because you can throw them at the ceiling and they just stick there.
