    Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters

    This has been one of the most interesting threads I've ever read. Like so many things, I find the subject fascinating. The hipsters are displaying a style of dress that I wouldn't want to adopt, but again, I am intrigued by them from a distance. I've never been much of a joiner because...

    Yes, he does - or has. Not sure what his current schedule is like but if I'm not mistaken, he began his hatting career specializing in panama blocking. I know he has done some wonderful work on straws for several TFLrs. Tom's suggestion for a local hatter is probably very sensible too!

    Congratulations. You are among the 'more clever' people than I. While entertaining, your posts did not inform me where I could find the emo's for my use -- but it did inspire me to dig around and solve it for my lazy self. There are probably no others having difficulty finding the emoticons in...

    Impressive work all-around. I would add an applause emoticon but I can't find them. (I would add a shrug....) Now, I'm starting to get silly. Where IS that laughing emo' and...? Also, when I do see that other more clever people have made use of the little faces, those new style emo's are very...

    My guess is late '60s, maybe into '70s. Hard to say for sure. Curious to see other opinions.

    Is "yanks" an offensive title

    Oh my goodness. I just read a few posts here. For myself, 'Yanks' is an absolutely harmless, jaunty, fun term with which I have no problem at all. And even if I did - if I were offended - well, them's just the breaks now ain't they? Going through life without being offended and making others...

    Agreed. I would also dampen the leather inside & out before putting trees in overnight.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    This was actually a weekend back at an outdoor gig. Then, yesterday, we actually played a rodeo arena and it was packed! :) Haven't gotten pix back yet from that one. Roughly eighty year old Stetson No. 1 Quality:

    New Hat Crease on black Stetson

    Classic. :eusa_clap You really dignified that thing. Kinda' fun shaping 'em, isn't it?

    Optimo was listed as PERFECT, what's this?

    The seller was an idiot to use that word, especially when trafficking in used merchandise. Opened himself to nitpicking and then didn't like the 'gotcha' it when it came home to roost.

    Very, VERY well done, Nick. :eusa_clap

    Ebaying this Steton... BUT, opinions

    To me, that would be an easy seller. Not vintage or uniquely stylish enough to fall in love with, but very clean which makes it marketable. I'd expect to get $30 - $50 for it on Ebay -- but don't hold me to it. Sometimes you get lucky and sometimes the timing isn't right. Last couple of 7-1/4...
