On another forum, I wanted to post this picture of Roger and I with our Montecristi hats....that were both purchased from PanamaBob and blocked by Art....

Three times they have been deleted by the administrator who must be a very jealous and childish hatter and doesn't want but anyone elses hats on there but his....i really don;t understand because he tells all of the members to post thiere hat pics...

other than being a couple of vintage guys...anyone see anything wrong with this one ?

Oh man...this is a give away! What are you guys doin'?? Tryin' to class that joint up? Stay in the Lounge where you belong!!! ;)

You both look great, but I'm curious. Are the two of you related? There is a marked resemblance between the two of you...and not just the fine hats!

What the . . ?

I've never seen two more subversive or dangerous-looking individuals in my life! They're clearly a threat to society as we know it! lol

Seriously, you guys look so smooth Mark, envy is the only reason I could think of to explain why anyone would want to delete that great picture form their site.

Banned Photo...

Everyone who is a someone would know it's fashion faux paux to wear a gold chain with a Light Blue Shirt and the Orange T-shirt is sooo 80's and further more those hat bands don't even match each other ! (Just Joking !!!:p )

All that aside, Great Hats...their forum's loss !!!

Obviously the reason for the ban is that the hats are so amazingly good looking that they would draw everyone's attention from anything else.

We could call them "weapons of mass distraction"

[ducking to avoid the flying tomatoes]

They are beautiful hats!

Yes that picture was taken in Florida....Roger and I are not related, except we are just two old southern boys...

I met Roger throught the FL, we have become friends. He saved me from the perils of the evil hatter of VA....He introduced me to Art Fawcett and PanamaBob...Gave me some advice on sales and service for my career. Then he put me up at the "Monticristi Inn" for a couple of nights, while I toured Florida....

He's not that close !!! We have a small camera...lol...

My picture finally stayed up on the other forum after I posted that the pic wasn't working properly...but since I started this thread, I have been threatend by the hatter...can you imagine..being threatened...!!!!

I am so glad that Roger introduce me to the above mentioned people and I have heard many other great things about some other hatters and proprietors here too.

Thank you for all the comments...I appreciate all of you very much...

I understand the person who runs the other forum. I too used to delete photos of those wearing hats without wearing ties, until one day I wanted to show my image wearing my new leather jacket... oh wait, I was wearing a tie in that picture as well... Hmmm. Maybe I should remove this picture.

Sharpetoys is actually the front man for a secret society dedicated to saving the world from this evil hatter. All those interested in joining the secret society need to PM myself or Sharpetoys for the secret password and handshake. ;)

If wearing a hat without a tie is an offense, then take me away boys, because it's not gonna happen here until the weather falls back under 70 degrees.
