“Eeeny, meeny, miney, mose… got a rocket up my nose.”
Eh, Fred?
Linguist said, 6 months ago
He’s just got to be careful that he doesn’t poke his eye out, or jam one of those rockets up his nose.

From the look on Ginger’s face I’d say he might even get lucky if he keeps the hat on. Just sayin’……………………

From Essex60 just before changeover…………
I say lunch at Linda’s and I’ll bring a couple bottles of Dom Perignon and my special, freshly juiced blend of oranges, mangos , passion fruit, and tangerines for mimosas !
……………………………………………………………..
Hey, I’m all for that. But hold off on the passion fruit for mine, after all it’s lunch, right…….. in the middle of the day and all.

Fred has always been a fan of stylized headwear. I remember in 4th grade at Ballard Elementary School Fred was the one who sat two seats behind Ms. B and threw paper airplanes at her while wearing his beanie with the propeller on it. Our teacher,Miss Prindle, was never able to catch him in the act.
Fred’s interest is now in exploration, but his interests have varied over the years. He’s had an interest in deep sea creatures, lighting devices, birds, assorted fruit among others. Here’s some headwear Fred has in his closet which reflect those varied interests.
