Freddy, the Astronomer

Most astronomers gaze up at the stars
But Freddy took pretty women to bars --
   He'd get in big brawls
   Crash into brick walls -- 
When he came to, he'd have sworn he saw Mars

Freddy sounds like he needs to take up a new hobby; he should be taking them to planetariums, not bars. Shame on him!

Hey, his dates got 'a night at the fights' along with free drinks. Better than the planetarium, perhaps. LOL. Best wishes, Gershon
