RON’S WISDOM SALON: A fictional advice column
Dear Ron,
This falls into the fashion category. When I wear my tuque I am not sure whether the label should be at the back or at the front. I have tried both, but always fear that it is at the wrong place, which makes me lose the concentration I need to try to find a decent job. Where do you think it should go?
Label Me Worried
Dear Label Me Worried,
I myself never wear a tuque for the simple reason that you never know which side is front and which is back and you always tend to make a fool of yourself. I will have to look that one up in order to answer your question.
I am back. With an excellent find: an organization that seems to know everything there is about them. One of the tidbits of fact that I gleaned from them is that “tuque” is not a good name for the hat because it is too hard to spell, so they want to change it.
As far as the label problem is concerned, I could not find the answer there to it. Of course, you could always try wearing the label on the inside, which may stun some people at first, but then you might, who knows, start a craze if it catches on.
If you wish to get creative, why not just get a very large sock to pull down over your ears? Socks don’t usually have labels affixed to them, so you would be safe. But please do not choose to don one of those those wiggy things with the two strings and attached pompom at the top that tries to project the image of a thin-brained creature who is visiting our planet from afar.
Good luck on this, and on finding a rewarding job.
