Good idea to mail them, Peni - but I don't trust the postal service to deliver safely in good condition (I had a box of research books destroyed when I mailed them to myself once). So I drive instead of fly, and can merrily fill the trunk with books as I roll along! >Everybody rise!

They call themselves Hipsters, and are into cocktail parties. I think <i>Mad Men</i> has something to do with this. But these hats are better looking than baseball caps. >A lot of young men around here wear hats in styles from the 50s and early 60s, either purchased at vintage clothing shops, or new ones designed in those "retro"styles.

I get compliments on them, too, even the crappy ones.

Less muscle strain. >I always wear a hat outside. After all, this is Texas, and it's either glaring and hot or raining. I get compliments on them, too, even the crappy ones.
