    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I'm lovin' the straws as felt season slips away but must confess that Rusty's Marathon and Douglas's Featherweight are real beauties. It seems that the straw season(s) just keep getting longer here in Texas. Today I'm sportin' last summer's multi-colored straw (I think it's actually...

    Darhling should do _______ with her hair.

    Darhling, IMHO red hair on the right woman and done with subtlety can be absolutely stunning. I favor the Rita Red which comes across as classy rather than brassy. I believe you'll be stopping traffic as a redhead since you are equally lovely as a blonde or a brunette. I'm looking forward to the...

    Royal Stetson Whippet

    The average hat size is 7 1/4. A 6 7/8 can be resized to fit a 7 1/4. The sweatband and ribbon would be replaced. Whenever this is done, the owner of the hat should specify that they want the original sweatband and ribbon delivered with the renovated hat.

    When does a gentleman fight back?

    miss-elise, I certainly agree with your last statement. However, I do not agree with your initial statement. The fact is that in three months a soldier only begins their training. It takes much longer, sometimes many years, to train a soldier and ongoing training never ends as long as one is in...

    When does a gentleman fight back?

    Rumblefish, well stated. I don't personally know anyone who would "look forward" to a stressful situation. That is what a break-in, robbery, assault, almost any confrontation is...a stressful situation. This sort of situation elicits a chemical response, a response that is often...

    Fed IV a little too big, fine with foam...advice?

    Nice job on the initial crease, FFF. Give it a bit of time and that Akubra will fit like a glove. I have 7 and they all started out a tad large. Now they all fit fine without the sizing strips.

    When does a gentleman fight back?

    One gentleman's opinion I was raised with this advice. "Don't go looking for trouble." Don't put yourself in harm's way. Don't instigate a conflict. Use your common sense, if you have any. I was also raised to believe that trouble, if it comes, is something you deal with. In essence...
