The RockHeadz



New York has the Rockettes. Providence has the RockHeadz. The three RockHeadz are heading for Saint Plotniko and get in this Saturday. The man in the next picture is not a RockHead.




Isn't this a gorgeous iron pattern? The old gate and fence, originally designed and forged by Mr. Deterding, the Bavarian immigrant chandelier and ornamental iron maker who built World Headquarters in 1893, is still standing, though the Plotniks had to get Iron Maverick to reattach the hinges on the gate.





Right now, Plotnik has to get up to Noe Valley Sal's to start the annual Christmas song. He's got the first verse:

Rumsfeld roasting on an open fire
Cheney nipping at his nose
Condi Rice with her woeful advice
And Crawford, Texas, really blows
Everybody knows...

I LOVE that ironwork. I didn't realize it was that old.

That song practically writes itself...
