Yeah, I Like This.....

 As many of you know, I wear the flat cap,( Think Boston Scally) like I'm running around the Yorkshire Dales in England.....Even have taken to wearing a cotton one in the summer. 

I think I own about 25-30 now. 

Hell, I have the one I am wearing for Christmas already picked out.

It's sort of my signature cap.....I've even duck and deer hunted in one.

So, I am a people watcher at airports and we were at 3 on our last trip. (I have even started looking at guys and saying to myself, " Nope they're not married, " and generally they are NOT wearing a wedding ring. 90% accurate. And married guys, get a ring, what are you thinking, you're going to be able to go back and " Chase tail?")

Hobby in Houston, Love Field in Dallas, Preston Smith in Lubbock. 

I was the only person wearing a flat cap.....I was thinking I'd see at least one other.

 I did not.  

I know I was in Texas, and there were several people, especially in Lubbock and Dallas wearing cowboy hats, people even carrying their fancy hat carriers. ( I think they are officially called "cans.") 

Nothing against cowboy hats, but you got to carry a can to take your hat off because it's a pain the wear in an airplane seat.....Hell, I can roll up my hat and put in my back pocket if I need to. 

I tried for years to wear other hats, caps, but just ain't me. 

Yeah, call me an oddball, a bit "different" but I always have been....

I like to look at it this way.....I'm just cooler than you.....

Drones Over America

 Little play on the December 1976 triple album from Paul McCartney's band "Wings." Good album set, went to number one in early...
