Thanks. Sounds like an interesting man.

He really is. His mind is SHARP. He can remember all the kids in the photo of his one room schoolhouse from 1925, and even the names of the five kids who weren't in the picture. He's a great guy. Here he is. Note the hat:

Your wife's uncle is a lucky man.

Okay, another "duh..." moment on my part, but what is going on in this photo?

I'm seriously laughing over here!!  Ya'll crack me up!!

Yep they have different shapes.  Tons, actually.  The best cowboy hat is shaped individually to your face.  Standard is still standard though.  And I do have to say that NONE of them are those crazy gigantic ten foot tall hats that show up in some movies.   Tongue

And of course I can't let this opportunity pass with out sharing a photo!!


My twins in my dad's cowboy hat.  October of 2005, when they were 16 months old.  My dad still wears this same hat!   Grin

Now here's two little fellas that know how to wear a cowboy hat!!! So cute!

Why do men always put their hats brim-side up when setting them down?

Maybe they only do it when they're out in a public place, for hygiene reasons?  (That would explain why Al's uncle sets it brim-down at home, where he knows it's clean.)   Otherwise you'd be setting the part that goes over your forehead down on top of who-knows-what-kind-of-germy surface.

When wearing such headgear, I personally never put it down brim up.
That would expose the crown to damage/smashing/scraping.
But it would allow for others to make cash donations easier(?).

Just sayin.....

Well....I never do this, but I feel kinda guilty after looking at what everyone else looks like!
Here's me....on my wedding day almost a year ago.
