    I've had that problem a few times during the last couple of weeks. My solution was to do something else for an hour or so then check it again.

    Post New Hats Here!

    I would normally be in that crowd; the Gay Prince "whipstitch" usually doesn't work for me. But I do like it on some hats, and StoryPNW's hat is one of 'em--proportions, crease, brim shape, color, it all works on THAT hat.

    I've had to do that a few times since The Lounge updated/switched their software two or three years ago. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Fedora for my face shape (pics)

    Wow, the kid from Whittier, California, USA, gets a shout out! Thank you! Since I'm here, @Count of Mavrovo , I think both hats suit you very well. But I do think the vest in the first photo is too snug and that you should go up at least one size.

    Oh, it was. Mostly, anyway. Around here it's difficult to find someone who knows how to cook hamburger rare without it remaining cold.

    Clean Jokes

    ^ I made a vegan vomit once. She was a friend of a friend of a friend, and my immediate friend had warned me that she was the "activist" type. Someone in the group suggested we all go out to eat, and, sure enough, she started in on me about how horrible I was the moment I ordered my Bacon...

    Help with {date or identify} a hat please.....!

    Correction: 8 panel. Commonly referred to as a "Newsboy", or "Baker boy", or "Big Apple" cap. A lot of companies make them these days, so finding one similar to his shouldn't be too difficult. Most are "cheap", some are dirt cheap, a good one should run you in the $30-75 range. I'd...

    You know you are getting old when:

    One word: testosterone. As we age, it changes both the color and the texture of the various hairs on our bodies making the hair (wherever it might be) appear to be thicker. Yes, our eyebrows grow. All of the hairs on our bodies grow, but nature stops this growth when they reach a certain...

    Wait, cremation and a burial at sea? Too easy: "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple. ;)

    Star Trek

    I like the addition of the tagline "The Final Season". No ambiguity, no, "Will there or won't there?" discussions about subsequent seasons, no guessing games, Paramount is telling the fans, "This is it." And it seems they've brought back the characters that the fans want to see reunited...

    Star Trek

    Nemesis isn't just the worst Star Trek movie; it's one of the worst movies I've seen period. As far as re-introducing Q, as far as I know he was one of the favorite recurring Trek "villains" and the back-and-forth between he and Picard is always fun. I haven't seen season 2 yet, so, please, no...

    Star Trek

    Well, I've finally seen the first eight episodes (season 1) of Star Trek: Picard. I'm enjoying it, but it has problems that I can't discuss openly without revealing too much. On the other hand, improved technology makes the visual effects very believable, and the show's "streaming" delivery...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    The word you left out was "normal", as in "...a normal person has his fill of it long before that day arrives." I've known more than a few of the, "I wish every day was Christmas!" types, and they were all completely out of their minds about it.

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    Nuts, too small for me. Otherwise it might have made a nice companion to my purty purple Pork Pie. :cool:

    Just keep in mind that the tighter you crease that felt, the more difficult it will be to eliminate it the next time you decide you want to re-crease that hat.

    Unless someone out there is looking for that exact hat I doubt you'll get any negative feedback. Besides, you bought it, it's yours, do with it what you will.
