- All the old 'lobby generals' used to congregate there and talk, and I used to listen to them. Fred is based on those guys, and on the old guys that hang around racetracks. They're honest and opinionated, and they've got guts. You see an old guy walking across the street and a car pulls up short and the driver honks his horn at him. The old guy is liable to bring his walking stick crashing down on the hood of the car. Can you see a doctor, or a lawyer, or a guy from McLaren's advertising doing that?
