Mother of boys; favorite magnet says "coffee is my only friend"; closet bodybuilder; once in a professional class, the teacher asked if anyone in the room was a geek and I was the only one who raised my hand; my liberal arts education has led me to know just enough about everything to consistently get the daily trivia at Caribou correct; always welcoming opportunities to build more character on my journey to self-actualization.....

Change Your Hat? ABSOLUTELY!

Rate: 18 Flag

In response to Joan's post:  Is it time to change my hat?

While your avatar photo is certainly important, perhaps you should begin to wear a hat during your appearances on Hardball.  Your hat could be used to intimidate your opponent or, at the very least, distract them enough that they will lose their train of thought.

The next time you are on Hardball with Dick. 

Just to mess with him...

For the 4th of July appearance!

In case they don't issue you a press pass for the White House...

You could just shape your hair into this...

Or this...

Freaky might fight you for this one, but it would be perfect if Chris has the spokesman for NASA on the panel:

Alas, my avatar cannot wear a hat...

Headless Town By Shel Silverstein 

Selling hats in Headless Town--
Special sale, so gather ‘round.
Short brim, wide brim, white or brown,
Hats for sale--in Headless Town.
Selling hats in Headless Town--
Stetson, bonnet, cap, or crown,
Isn’t there one soul around
Who needs a hat in Headless Town?
Selling hats in Headless Town
Sure can get a fella down,
But there’s a way
If there’s a will
(I once sold shoes
In Footlessville).

Ha ha ha ha! Freaky will surely steal that pink hat, but Joan would look striking in one of those up-dos!

I adore the space age pink hat but like the practicality and versatility of baseball caps...but the idea of making hair the new hat...clever idea!

Great suggestions. You appear to live on the east coast. Do you really sit up that late researching these things? In reference to Cartoochee in her latest post, I am so glad to see that you are not stressing out over world news!! As for hats:

"No, I do not like your hat.

I do not like it on a train.
I do not like it in the rain.

I do not like it in the car; I do not like it near or far.
I do not like it with a feather; I do not like it in bad weather.

But, wait!

I DO like it on your head; I DO like it 'neath your bed.
I like your hat when it’s on you; I like it though it isn't blue.

You wear it well, with grace and style.
And best of all, when 'ere you smile.

Though it is clothes which make the man,
its YOU who wears hats with élan!

You flatter all the clothes you wear with style that shows certain flair!

I like you in your purple hat.
I like you even without that."

Very clever! Number 2 seems to cover all bases, from vulgar to patriotic. Definite one to wear on Hardball.

Lea- Thanks for commenting!

Definitely want to see Joan with a hat on Hardball too now. Come on, Joan... give your audience what they want. Someone's gotta' compete with Rachel.

These are so funny. But I wonder about those hair hats--those are scary. I would like the Secret Service cap because I can think of some situations where it might be useful.

You really worked hard on this post--hope you didn't lose too much sleep! rated

Isn't this great? We got to see hair hats (eww) and once again, as if no one has figured this out this week, affirm the fact that Poetry is, indeed, in our every day lives; poetry, indeed, is loved and beloved, if not always understood; poetry, indeed, is like the air we breathe.

Joan: I had to write another post about the sleep I lost, for something as inane as this.
Connie: That was a lovely little poem!
Thanks Roy!
