love love love it!

:: stunned appreciative silence plus suppressed giggles ::

Lonnie, you're a verrrrrrrrrrrry silly man. ;D

heeheeeeeeeeeeeeee........

this should turn into an iPhone app within days.

Damn, boy, that is one HOT hat!

Also the face below.

You know what movie I'm thinking of, Lonnie.
Where is that chair?

You stole it from the Queen Mum's royal wardrobe, right...?

hey, I didn't 'shop it, but I took that photo!

I knew Freaky would be ass over teakettle for this.

That look. It's so...so...You.

chuckle

Arethra's inauguration hat!!! She will beat you senseless for stealing her prized hat!!!

OMG, Thomas must see this immediately. THOMAS!!

Divolicious!

I wonder if she bought that hat at Mrs. Dewson's?

I think what *really* makes the pic is your Angelina Jolie-esque thousand yard stare.

Lonnie, this truly is magnificent. I detect an aura of Erroll Flynn, with hints of Bert Reynolds and nose of Bert Lahr. A winning composition.

And yet. And yet. I wonder if an alternate entry should be attempted. That umm, other shot of yours, with the hat at a jaunty but judicious angle, concealing yet revealing........whaddya think? PUHLEEEAZE.

WOOF

C cubed - you've read my own mind. I was going to hold off until this one got a certain amount of pick-up. Spring comes early in NoCal, on the other hand...

Spring can't come too soon for your loyal fans. That pic would definitely get my vote. Right now I'd say you're neck and neck, or maybe cheek by jowl with the Orange haired one.

WOOF

Orange haired one? WHERE?

What the big dog said.

I found out on o'stephanie's post that the orange haired one is named Fritz. I'm telling you right now, Fritz better STEP BACK.

Love the HOT Hat.

Freaky, did you see how my boy was lovin' on Pinky in Austin last weekend?

With no disrespect to o's or O'K, Fritz never fooled me for a second.

Pinky has.. ah.. issues. I think it's because Barry keeps her in the garage.

she seemed OK around the peacocks and the carp. but especially among the huevos rancheros and the pacifico.

::hop::hop::hop::

::nudge::nudge::

Lonnie,
You better have a bunny litter box over here...

You are so sexy in that hat Lonnie! I have this sudden urge to perform a striptease for you and I hear Joe Cocker's music in my head for some reason. Coincidence? I think not.....

Hey, where was this taken? At Juan in a Million? I should have been there!

Do you have a matching tube top?

I've got nothing but R - E - S - P - E - C - T !!! for your new look, Lonnie!!!

Hats on to you!

It's you. Totally you.

How did you get "Andre the Giant" to hold his finger on the center while you tied the bow?

The Court Jester of Soul!

"My cunt...tree tis of thee."

You look stunning!
(rated)

Think I liked it better on Dick Cheney !

Na , fabulous Lonnie .....

sooooo handsome!

Yes, but does it match your shoes?

(Thumbifiied for haberdashery)

funny.

Tar-Jay? 99Cents Store?

I'm with Cartouche. I watched "9 1/2 Weeks" about a bazillion times. Every time I hear that song, I am inclined to remove my clothing and we already know Lonnie has no problem with it. So..........baby take off your dress. yes, yes, yes

Now you need to once again doctor the ass shot with added hat. A QE2 purse would be nice as well, fitting into the ensemble tres chic.

I hope you wear that hat spring training!

Almost as cute as Freaky's!

i'm nt sure which had a greater impression, the hangover or the "hat-head."

i want to thank all the OS babes who've offered to strip for me. if you're serious, i'll play and sing the Joe Cocker tune while you dance and we can put it on Lonnie Cam.

tastefully, of course.

Lonnie, you are quite the diva. Love that hat on you, really.

This is the best comment section on OS right now. Greg, Gary, Jodi - y'all are on fire. Who knew that Lonnie in a bad hat would stir so many creative juices.

I have but one word: Eeooww.

Aretha's gonna be ticked. But that is one great song you've stuck in my head for a while. That alone is worth the rate.

Gorgeous. Everyone should have a hat that looks like a Frank Gehry building!

I love the photo (it works on you!) and also the fact that I have Joe Cocker is my earworm now.

... Turban for the alternative Taliban sophisticate?

"i want to thank all the OS babes who've offered to strip for me. if you're serious, i'll play and sing the Joe Cocker tune while you dance and we can put it on Lonnie Cam."
Ah...that's not quite what I had in mind. The chair is for you! (I will keep my mink coat handy if you get cold...)

I can't believe how good you look in this hat. You look better than the Queen herself and she looked fabulous.

So this is what goes on when I'm absent from OS for a while! Love it...

Well, Marsha, there are others here doing serious work such as advancing the frontiers of cranial-proctology and solving the global economic crisis, but me, I'm just propagating another Internet meme.

It demands respect. It makes you look like a Natural Woman. Stunning!

stunning. no, really. I am really stunned.

The day I look as good as Kim Basinger, I will strip for anyone who asks. Until then, I think you'd better be the one doing the dancing.

what do you mean nobody is here? Looks like the gang is all here to me! If I ever meet you... gotta have that hat on your head!

Have you read that they're arguing over who designed the hat? Two different hat designers have been given credit - apparently the one that actually made it is considered to have ripped off another hat designer who specializes in these "church hats". And they each want recognition. the mind boggles.

I was perplexed for many years after my doctor had written a prescription for my depression and nausea. I puzzled over the words, not knowing how the key ingredients mentioned in this overly long prescription could have performed the change in my life, moving me from darkness, into the light......I keep the prescription by my bedside, and when I feel the dark shroud of doubt descend, I gently lift the prescription slip into the glow of my lamp and read the words, "Lonnie in a bad Hat."

Special thanks to Sandra NLM........

LOOK AT YOUUUUUU!

I think tequillaanddonuts has some competition here...

Rob, would that be competition in haberdashery or photoshoppery?

Damn, I was expecting Kim Basinger or at least Randy Newman or Joe Cocker. YOu look better in it than Aretha, and I bet you could sing My Country Tis of Thee better, too.

Rich, the original unshopped pic was taken at Taco Gueros, not Juan in a Million.

Just had to come back and visit the Divine L

damn Lonnie, you are some kinda hawt in that fine looking chapaeu
