    WANTED: Vintage 7-1/2 Fedora

    I'd offer this one, but I don't want to sell it, and besides, it's 7-3/8. But nice to see the possibilities, so ... This is an Art Fawcett custom job. He'll do with our without the rim ribbon. I happen to prefer without. Good luck on your hunt! I'm sure you'll find something great!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Do you start with a fresh brisket or use corned beef as the base? I do the former, and do use juniper berries too. But my wife doesn't care for pastrami, so it's a rare event. - Ed

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    I generally get compliments if anyone says anything. Mostly I find people are friendlier (and women do seem to appreciate the doff of the hat indoors. In fact, I haven't gotten a negative comment or look since I started wearing hats again last winter. Sure, some of my colleagues have given me...

    Do any of you guys follow any type of hat etiquette?

    When I started using it, it was milnet - maybe 30 years ago. It was limited to the US military, their contractors and some research universities. Philosophical discussions were welcome. There was etiquette like not trolling, not top-posting, sticking to business etc. Things change! On...

    Why!!!! Hipsters!!! Why!!!!!

    We're all people; an awful lot of us here are Americans. There's plenty of room for different ways of looking at things, and we're stronger and better when we try to understand those ones that don't apparently look at things the same way we do. My take is that even the most abominable of...
