in pic 8 on the right? I've never been a hat person and hats for men or women haven't been popular in many decades but I've been thinking of going out to the desert and becoming a desert rat in my fast-approaching old age and I'll definitely need a hat for the sun. I like the hats of the 19th century like a derby or homburg. Do Presidents even wear a top hat for their inauguration anymore or was JFK the last one to do it? I kind of miss hats that you would see everywhere when I was a little kid.




I imagine though that if you wear a hat all day and all night (and sweat in it) except when you go to bed, taking it off is like removing an old sweaty pair of socks in the room that you never put in the wash.
