What is your favorite hat crease?

[Zombie_61]

Some day I will own a hat with that crease.

Some day you will bash your hat like that!

I just brought him up because I went to HS with him and he's probably the only semi-name I knew from back then...unless you include an admiral and a parish priest.

Besides that, he's a jazz drummer. Wouldn't expect you to list him as an influence. Some evening when we're swapping stories I'll tell you about the great prank I played on him...and he never figured out who it was.

I am a jazz drummer
as are two of the main inspiration I mentioned

I dig Barnes ... he is a badass

Oh, I've tried. But either my technique is flawed, or the hats were uncooperative. It'll happen when the right hat comes along.

Ok...;et's think ahead here. We now know your rationale for your "one more hat, Mrs Zombie. Once you acquire that Holy GrailHat, what will be your next excuse?

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Wow. Those were really crappy pictures. Sorry about that. They looked better smaller on my phone.

Thanks for the likes, though!

I'm sure this Strat has been posted a number of pages back. But now this wonderful Moon Diamond (sounds like something DeBeers is marketing this time of year...) is in my grubby hands!

I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. I'm sure something will come to mind.

I'm telling you now: Plot, Plan, Scheme, Rehearse your lines to perfection! Otherwise, when the time comes you will be overcome with PBE (Perfecto Basho Ecstasio), meaning that when someone suggests you need no other hat than The One Hat Of Perfection, all others will be sold off the top of your head and all funds for future hattery will be permanently disbursed to someone else's pursuit of their own nirvana.

You will then look on your Hat of Perfection as the bane of your existence, like the Ancient Mariner's albatross, only above your noggin instead of below!

Actually, I'd be fine with a single hat that fills my wants and needs. But until someone creates a magical hat that can transforrn itself into whatever color or shape I want at any given moment, it ain't gonna' happen.

Just got this from my grandma. It was my grandpa's. He had good taste in hat creases apparently.

It'd sure cut down on storage needs.

Oh it's just a wool fedora from the 90s. Probably a Hatco. Nothing too fancy.
