If a person is "observant," they notice what is going on around them, or little details that others may not see. The "Marine Corps" is the branch of the US military that is best known for landing on beaches. I noticed a pin. It’s a signal, isn’t it? A small piece of metal that is used to fasten cloth together. A "signal" is a message that is sent, usually without the use of words. 154 Hippo Avenue. Like a rabbit. Hip, hop. "Hip hop" is the expression used to describe how a rabbit jumps or runs from one place to another. Is there a zip code with that? The five digit code that helps the mail service deliver the mail. That’s six digits. A "digit" is any of the numbers from 0-9. I’m standing here; You make the move.
