Doing some shopping (Beer, Chips, Whiskey) for a big night of watching some History Channel and maybe some clever adds. In the Chip isle there?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s a guy wearing a well-blocked fedora, a dark blue suit and a gray trench coat that matched his lid?¢‚Ǩ¬¶ well-polished shoes.
Of course, I said to him: ?¢‚Ǩ?ìEhee?¢‚Ǩ¬¶ nice lid.?¢‚Ǩ? He responded?¢‚Ǩ¬¶ ?¢‚Ǩ?ìThanks, yours too?¢‚Ǩ¬¶?¢‚Ǩ? He had a real New York or Chicago way about him. Hard-jawed metropolitan way about him. His wife was a real doll.
In the parking lot I saw him and his wife packing up the SUV, I checked out the license plates?¢‚Ǩ¬¶ being a boarder town they could be locals from either state.
I wanted to say something, let him know there were more of us out there but he didn?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t seem too receptive and they seemed rushed. I didn?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t want to do anything that would discourage this guy from wearing fedora?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s by making a scene. It just feels good to know that in this neighborhood I might not be alone.
After telling my wife what happened and that I just don?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t feel unique, she said that?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s impossible. Many folks may be striving to look like the real deal, I it. We go hiking, exploring old abandoned parts of New England and old roadbeds, I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m always the first to try something new and outgoing... There?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s now way I could never be anything but unique.
?¢‚Ǩ¬¶ There?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s a complement in there for me somewhere. Regardless, it?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s great knowing that some aspects of The Golden Age are coming back for some of us.
