    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I would so do that!

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    "Catspot litter" radio ads. I mean, who thinks having a radio announcer sounding like Goober is a good thing? "W..ell shoot, Ah reckon this here litter is just the thang..." Also, radio and TV announcers who pronounce Iraq and Iran as "EYE-rack" and "EYE-ran." We learned the proper...

    Please help Cindy (LuvMyMan) and Daniel.

    My condolences, Cindy. Your story has that bittersweet touch. Being there at the end has a special meaning. Prayers for you both.

    Are you sure? In the photo it appears to have only a single panel. The photo isn't real clear on that aspect.

    Caps aren't my thing, but I believe this might be an "Ivy" cap, also known as a "flat" cap. According to Delmonico Hatter, "Ivy caps, also referred to as Flat Caps, are constructed with a single panel of fabric on the top." Not a lot to go on, I know. But maybe it's a start...

    What Shows/Movie Franchises have you "Rage Quit"?

    I think I've "rage quit" TV in general. There's nothing broadcast these days that holds my interest save baseball and current events. I've even gone so far as to subscribe to Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu, and I'm about to pull the plug on Hulu. Most days I find it more interesting and...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I'm not a hockey fan, but I have to support the home team. #ALLCAPS

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Solo. Yesterday. I'm probably in the minority, but I liked it! I've said elsewhere that the Star Wars franchise was built around the story of the Skywalker family, but very early on we're introduced to this rogue/smuggler and his furry sidekick, and we know nothing about them. Yet, they...

    Dobbs Rosebud with new paracord hatband.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Another shining example of me not knowing what looks good and what doesn't. I've received two compliments on my Akubra Campdraft today, and it's not even 10:30am yet.

    Show us your photography

    Okay, I'll play. This was the view from my hotel patio. And from the dining room.

    I Wear A Hat Because... Rx

    I went to my dermatologist today to have him look at a crusty little bugger that appeared a month or so ago on my right ear, and which causes me some discomfort when I touch or rub it. With a hat, with a pillow, etc. It turns out it's a result of the sun. It's not pre-cancerous or anything to...

    Pronounced, "Eye-gor!" :D

    Name the Actor...

    Who doesn't know Gene Wilder? How about his co-star?

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    My Sterkowski Linen Trilby. I think this is the first time I've worn it outdoors. The hatband is quite stiff. I guess I need to wear it a lot to soften it up!

    Have to ask this question on this forum page.

    I think that's a function (bug?) of the software. Unlike many sites that require a link to an image rather than the actual image itself, there are toggles (thumbnail, full size) when one uploads photos. At times, I think the software gets confused and displays duplicate images. I'm just...

    Have to ask this question on this forum page.

    Maybe it's your Internet connection speed? I don't seem to have that issue, but I'm on a 100/100mbs connection. You could also try a different browser. The fastest of all is Lynx, but it's text-only, which means no graphics will display. Not very useful on a site like this. Most people use...

    Vintage things that have REAPPEARED in your lifetime?

    Yep. When I was in high school, one of my friends had a 1948 Chrysler that had a foot starter.
