    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I'm pretty much exclusively wearing my diamond crown Panama at this point. Its just gotten too hot for anything else. I tried wearing my brown Hobbs fedora last night and I was sweating before I could make it past the kitchen. I just turned around and grabbed my panama.

    The Agents of F.L.A.S.K.

    I remember some years ago I spent an entire afternoon looking at various claims of Nessie type creatures. I think I found something like 22 different countries where there were multiple sightings of either Nessie or pterodactyl type creatures, including a handful in the US. I have my theories...

    Here is a shot of one of them. It didn't occur to me that it might be a person's initials. The gold stamping made me think it was a factory designation of some sort. Sent from my moto z3 using Tapatalk

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    It also doesn't help that he appeared to be speaking in a "sean connery" imitation instead of his normal speaking voice.

    I've run across a few hats recently with the letters WGF stamped in the sweatband. Can anyone tell me what this means? I tried searching for it, but the search function here won't search those 3 letters, and a google search turns up some pretty crazy results for what WGF might mean.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    One of the most important things I've tried to teach my children is to be polite and courteous regardless of the situation. Assume everyone is deserving of your respect.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I think it was supposed to be a muffling effect of the mask he wore. Gotham actually did something similar when they introduced Bane on the show. Those are actually the worst 2 representations of the character.

    Favorite Fashion Youtuber?

    I've been going to the website for some time now, but I've not watched any of the videos. That's mainly because I tend to check the site out while I'm at work, and videos with sound would disturb others Sent from my moto z3 using Tapatalk

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Yeah, I was about 45 minutes in when I realized I had emphasized everyone use the bathroom before the movie started, but never went myself. And thus began the eternal struggle between man and nature. Sent from my moto z3 using Tapatalk

    Post New Hats Here!

    Received a matching pair of Bollman fur bowlers today, one in black, one in grey. They both had a pretty significant dent in the top. It looked intentional, almost like someone was trying to put a fedora style crease in the top. I put some steam to them and have gotten it mostly corrected. All...

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    I just got my first "like that hat" from a stranger. I was waking around Walmart wearing my Panama. I don't know if it was genuine or in jest, but he saw fit to say something about it, so at the very least it made an impression. Edit..... Aaaaand I didn't make it out of the store before I...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I actually had a card just like that in a Stetson I picked up off ebay a couple weeks ago. it says something along the lines of "Like hell it's your hat, this hat belongs to..." I'll try to get a picture of it this evening

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    If you refer to a suspect with any negative wording prior to a conviction, you run the risk of causing issues with granting a fair trial due to skewed public perception, and even run the risk of a lawsuit being brought against the department.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Yes, actually. Military and Police have to be very careful when speaking to the general public and are trained to specifically avoid using certain words due to the connotations that those words can imply. "capture" sounds rather harsh. You capture a wild animal that has been attacking...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Avengers Endgame. If you've been watching the Marvel movies up to this point, you can't go without seeing this one. Of course if you haven't been watching them, then this one will hold no particular draw, as it doesn't hold up as a standalone movie that someone can just go watch with little...

    The Fragmentation Of History

    This is the age of what I like to call "facebook outrage". People are looking for reasons to be mad, and don't care what it is they are mad about, or what any of the actual facts are, only that they can shout their anger as they so please. Even when presented with facts that directly contradict...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    The only pawn stars equivalent that I felt had any actual merit was Comic Book Men. It was filmed in the comic shop that Kevin Smith owns in NJ. In addition to the other shenanigans they got up to every episode, they had segments where people would come in to sell or buy various items. Being...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I've been part of a few different collector based communities throughout the years. All anyone ever seems concerned with is how much they can turn around and sell something for later on. That literally never crosses my mind. If I collect something, its because I like it, and selling it goes...

    Classy bars...

    There is a bar in Atlanta that is modeled after a classic Speakeasy, right down to the fact that its hidden and you can't just go there. You have to get the "secret code" from someone else and enter it into a phone booth outside. They also have a minimum dress code that requires men to be...

    Leather Western Shirt Arrives

    I wouldn't normally consider a leather shirt, and I'm not quite sure I can pull that off, but I really dig it. It has a nice not quite a shirt not quite a jacket look to it that I think will work in a lot of different occasions. Sent from my moto z3 using Tapatalk
