In the Word link I was going to post 5-0211 in response to Juniper because the old phone numbers used to use word mnemonics for local telephone exchanges. For instance, in this case, Juniper 5-0211 was my dad's office number - 585-0211. You would utilize letters on the dial for the first two digits; in this case J=5, and U=8.

I figured this was too obtuse a link, so I abstained.

Gin is liquor which derives its predominant flavour from juniper berries (Juniperus communis).

Bird's Eye is a brand of frozen peas in the U.S.


So to in mine and many a country.

I wonder if those freshly frozen American Bird's Eye peas frozen moments after picking are the same as our English Bird's Eye peas frozen moments after picking.

Do you have those Bird's Eye fresh garden peas that are so green and sweet?


"Bird's Eye" is also an idiom which is the better perspective I think.

To see, to oversee or perhaps to understand more perhaps.

It's been awhile since I bought anything other than the cheaper supermarket generic brand of frozen vegetables. I'll have to look and report back.

Two Louisville twin girls(Barnstable) were in a commercial for that gum, many moons ago.

They say 11:11 means an angel is close and watches over you Gordon.

Lets hope it's a cheeky one that brings fun.

I heard that too. That seeing 11 repeatedly is a sign that you are following the right path.

Well here to discuss Head. Since it was the Admiral that posted the word I am sure he is award that the "head" aboard a Navy ship is the bathroom. The term comes from the days of sailing ships when the place for the crew to relieve themselves was all the way forward on either side of the bowsprit, the integral part of the hull to which the figurehead was fastened. Thus the head.
