    Unpopular music opinions

    Very true, Lizzie. Different bands could have their own take on a standard, and no one rolled theirs eyes and said "oh no, not another remake of (insert title here)."

    I remember when.....

    Getting up to change channels was not so much of a bother then, we only had four to choose from, so "surfing" was kind of pointless!

    Do Dogs Really Hate Hats?

    My sister had two Labradors that hated anyone in a hat or cap. My Lab mix and Rotty mix have grown up with me wearing them, so they know it means "time to go out" when they see one on my head. I think it's all in what they get used to.

    The Well-Dressed Farmer

    And, he could wear a hat.

    The Well-Dressed Farmer

    Well dressed, no, but he does have his hat on!

    Unpopular music opinions

    Not saying that some of the "Boy Bands" aren't talented, but I don't get the hype. To me, all they are is a repackaging of Motown groups (like the Tops, Temptations, Miracles, etc.) which were a repackaging of the doo-woop groups (Platters, Skyliners, etc.) which were a repackaging of the 30's...

    The Well-Dressed Farmer

    So maybe Oliver Wendel Douglas was not so wrong, after all. (For anyone too young to know who he is, check out IMDB!)

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    TCM ran Another Thin Man over the weekend. Lot's of good hats in that one (and a cameo of my favorite Stooge - Shemp).

    Jaxson 'Bogie' Ordered

    So, MV, has your son been wearing his new lid? I ordered one (Jaxon crushable) in gray last Sunday, it should arrive tomorrow. VHS had a sale, and I thought, "why not?"

    Planning your attire

    Totally agree with you, dnjan. Another reason I plan the night before is that I get up while my wife is still asleep. That way I spend less time banging around the closet making noise that might wake her up.

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    Oh, I should also have said, about Dune, yours is probably not and "unpopular" opinion :)

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    Only someone who ever read the book could even hope to understand it. You just can't compress that much material into a couple hours. SyFy channel did a little better with a multi-part format, but still a little lacking. I hear rumors someone is going to try it again. Maybe third time...

    National Hat Day, Hat Person of the Year

    In 1982, Time magazine designated the computer as "person of the year", so why can't the Fedora Lounge be the "Hat Person of the Year"? Can we launch a write-in campaign?

    Planning your attire

    Except with jeans, I can't bring myself to wear socks that do not match my trousers. So, it's either limit trouser colors, or expand the sock collection!

    Librarians?

    Even though I am a computer systems manager, I have a degree in Applied History, and volunteer at county historical society in the library and archives. We help patrons with research (usually genealogical or school projects on local history) and will do research on request.
