Thanks, Stefan.

So you’re publicly admitting that you are a bird racist.
Birds matter, dude.
I, for one, like birds.
Game birds and chicken, mostly.

Yeah, I have a pile of hat feathers that have been yanked outta many a hatband on my dresser. However, on a few of my hats I like them.
Folks have been sticking bird feathers in felt hats since the beginning of felt hats.
Bleeve it’s called macaroni.

Wouldn't that be a species-ist? Birds: dinosaurs in gift-wrapping! I say let them keep their feathers!
Only native Americans ever made a decent hat out of them:

I think the cavaliers and musketeers were way ahead of the macaronis. Or something like this maybe?

What would the Kurgan say? "Ramirez was an effete snob!"
So be careful with those feathers, Randall;)
Thanks, Stefan.

Size doesn’t matter...when one owns hat tools and skillz to use ‘em.
:)
Funny, my wife keeps telling me the same thing: you need a good tool and some decent skill! Wonder what she means by that...o_O

LOL.
All good ones.
I especially like that Indian....hat.

Hmm. Compensation. Is that why you have such a huge collection of hats?
