Welcome! Nice hats! Everybody here is someone to get to know and a great group willing to share the love of hats!

I haven't been to my Jewish friend's synagogue yet, but I'm wondering what to wear if I do. I don't have enough hair to pin a yarmulke to.
Six feet tall? Huh? Humphrey Bogart! I dare anybody to say he didn't look good in hats and he was nowhere near six feet.
Elisha Cook Jr, too!
The real Henry said:The silliest comment you could get(and I got it!) is simply: "Hat-man"!!! :eusa_doh:
And believe it or not this was meant in a bad way?

Haversack said:I got another one on Wednesday while riding home on the bus. I was wearing my straw planters hat with a blue pugaree ribbon which Art made and one of those tan linen jackets from Target. Two kids get on the bus and as they walk by, one says to the other, "Did you every see Jurasic Park?" while at the same time rolling his eyes towards me. Its been a while since I've seen it but I suppose it was in reference to the hunter character in it.
Haversack.

I'm constantly getting country music CDs from them at Christmas.
...I don't have the heart to try to explain it. Smile and nod, thank you, go home and put it on eBay.
jamespowers said:Ok, we have all been seen with our hats on and called things like Indy and gangster but I had the absolute stupidest comment today. I was outm getting lunch and some oaf said I looked like Columbo with my 2 1/4" brim Milan on. This was with a Hawaiian shirt and khakis! I could have understood Carl Kolchak (Darin McGavin) in the Nightstalker
but Columbo?! He didn't even wear a a hat! :rage: :eusa_doh: What a nitwit!
What was your dumbest comment ever heard?
Regards,

FedoraGent said:JP,
I've recently had the Indy and Dick Tracy comment and I handled it quite well but I KNOW that if I had come across that one I know that I'd have laughed right out loud. That's preposterous and just downright idiotic. Ouch. Sorry man.
FG.

jamespowers said:I did laugh out loud. It was like one of those moments where you say something dumb and then hear crickets chirping. After that I laughed. lol
