Quick Hello from a Newbie

[photogravity]

Hello fellow forumites. I recently discovered that I had the need for some nicer lids than the baseball caps I've been wearing, so I decided to purchase a brand spanking new Stetson Muldoon from DelMonico Hatters. Well one thing lead to another and I think I may be starting a bit of an obsession with hats. Since that initial purchase, just a little over two weeks ago, I have purchased five additional hats:

1. Stetson 4x beaver western hat (tan/camel - unknown model)
2. Sovereign Stetson Temple fedora (black)
3. Billy The Kidd by Stetson western hat (chocolate/brown with a super ugly feather hatband)
4. Sovereign Stetson fedora (navy - has not arrived yet so do not know the model)
5. Knox Premier Madison Avenue derby (black - has not arrived yet but it may actually be a fedora)

I'm hoping that I've not gotten some sort of bug but I think I may have to concede that I've been bitten. Is there anyone who would like to provide a diagnosis and possible prognosis?

Let's just say this is a place that will help to support your habit, not your recovery.

^ Frunobulax, I was afraid you might say that. I'm also a frequent visitor to bike forums and that has resulted in a collection of around 45 bicycles, mostly English and mostly vintage. The majority of the aforesaid are from the mid-1940's to the early-1960's. I don't really need another obsession or hobby, but here I am nonetheless. :eeek:

It is technically referred to as FAD... Fedora Acquisition Disorder.
Unfortunately there is no known medical treatment available at this time...
