I've been asked to MC a rather large event this coming Thursday. After having finished preparations and finalized the script for the event, I received this email from the organizer explaining in part why they asked me:
"Thank you so much and we are really looking forward to meeting you...
Had to drive in today, so you get a shot of me and my Northwest Hats fedora at the office.
Sending well wishes to everyone in the storm today, including my daughter in DC.

Love checking out all the great hats you folks are wearing. It's thin-ribbon Thursday for me in my modern production Stratoliner.

I just noticed this thread. Just about everything I would say has been said already. What is interesting to me is that I have come to a point where I think I look a lot better with a hat on than without one. I actually feel a little self conscious taking it off. I honestly never think twice...

The felt was a bit stiffer and thicker than I had expected, much more so than the Premier Stratoliner I bought last year. It took a bit of...
The six greatest words in the English language just crossed my screen: "Your item is out for delivery." I should have my new Stetsonian in Caribou waiting for me when I come home.
I'm loving the homburgs lately. Happy Wednesday to all. I'm facing another ho-hum 15 degree morning in a Penman.

A week ago I was waiting for a train when a guy came up to me, pointed at my Akubra Sydney and said, "Hey, Tom Landry." The Sydney has a 2 1/2 inch brim. As memory serves, Landry wore something much stingier. I was going to pleasantly point this out to him when he started to slowly unzip his...
