    Where I live, standing in the middle of a street trying to get a photograph would be akin to suicidal madness.

    Please help Cindy (LuvMyMan) and Daniel.

    Cindy, thank you for sharing your story, your faith and your strength. I lift you and Daniel up in my prayers.

    All of these wonderful nature scenes. Contrast that with this "pedestrian's view" of Atlantic Avenue in Virginia Beach.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    You're right. Worrying is like paying interest on a debt you may never owe!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    So, here's the thing: It's been raining like crazy, and I'm still very nervous about wearing a quality hat out in weather like this. So, I took a step backward and donned a hat (cap) that I don't worry about surviving the weather. Tell me, how do you take an Akubra Campdraft and wear it out...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I get jealous of you guys (and that's most of you) who can just pop on a hat and make it look great. And vice-versa. I'm afraid I'm not one of you in that regard. If I weren't busy conducting a training right now, I'd be "liking" pretty much every post I see. So, this is a "global like" to...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    It's too nice a day today to not wear my new Dobbs Rosebud. Think anyone will notice (or care) it's straw?

    Changes in Attitude in Marriage & Divorce from the Golden Era to Now.

    Whew. The problem of old threads rising to the top. I started reading the last page, and then went back in time to see what others had contributed to the thread, and almost jumped out of my skin. You see, I could probably add my own pages to this thread; I'm debating on whether I should...

    One of the things I like about the Steve Allen clip -- and we all know Steve Allen was quite the musician, too -- is that he starts out being dismissive of Zappa. By the end, he has grown to respect him.

    Akubra Overload

    Here's another Zappa recollection: I attended college in Munich, Germany on the army base (McGraw Kaserne). My dorm room was the corner room on the top (fourth) floor. I took paint (not acrylic) and painted my window. Half of the window was an America hot dog (re: Firesign Theatre, "A mighty...

    Akubra Overload

    I did know that! I saw Frank Zappa in concert five times. Once in Baltimore, MD (his home town) and four times in Munich, Germany. Frank was a serious, professional musician. I remember reading an article on him in a German magazine on a train from Munich to Vienna, and it described how he...

    That's easily understood when you sport a Frank Zappa mustache and goatee (or at least your avatar does)! :p

    Wow, that was fast! It took me about three months to get my Campdraft. Great pics, but I wonder why you, like so many others, scowl when shooting a selfie? I'd scowl because I'm terrible at taking selfies, but when I try, I like to smile, because wearing a nifty hat is reason to smile! :)

    You always have standout hats, Mike! Outstanding!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    It's a nice, spring day around here today, so I thought it might be a good day to debut my Akbura Campdraft. I kneaded and shaped it a bit, applied some steam, and figured it was due for its maiden voyage. This is the first time I've shaped my own crown. I think I need to fine tune it a bit...

    My technical expertise does not extend to creating and maintaining a YouTube channel. My guitar work is always performed live. :)

    No wife left on the premises. But my rooms are already taken up by guitars, cameras and office equipment.
