I've got two Tilley hemp hats, in both of the colors shown here:
And another really beat up white one, which I use for messing around outside in the yard.
For the winter I've got a bunch of news boy hats, with the addition of earmuffs when it gets really cold.

My daughter and I wear these when we go riding.
The landscape in this photo is one of the reasons
I'd like to live in the Shenandoah Valley someday.
We'll leave the light on for 'ya, Howard. I'll be the one in the Detroit ball cap. |

btw, my birthday is coming up. That Sid's link is subtle, but it is a hint.

City Slicker’s Chapeau Palace for Urban Cowboys sells faux cowboy hats for exorbitant prices. Try them.

Say, I wonder, if we each wear our hat tonight, you in Iowa, me in North Dakota or Minnesota, depending, if we will be able to establish a telepathic connection? Through the hats. There is blue goat connected to both of them, probably the same goat as blue goats are rare. And telepathic. At 9:32 PM, let's each put on our hat and think real hard about something, say a beer or maybe some popcorn. And see what happens. |

I wear hats like the one below (which is a great example of the type) pretty much exclusively when I am working outdoors. Have for the last 15 or 20 years or so. They work as well or better than anything for sun protection and they work well with those earmuff hearing protectors (which I have worn around power equipment, and occasionally my wife, for the last 40 years or so). I even wear sun hats while golfing now, if I'm walking that is. I must have at least 10 or 15 of them stashed all over the place. (when one gets sweat drenched, hang it on a pole and move on to the next one)  Lowes sells the pictured one for a fair bit less than Cabella's or Columbia. |

Sure you didn't steal it from a mailman?

At 9:32 PM, let's each put on our hat and think real hard about something, say a beer or maybe some popcorn. And see what happens. Well, that was kind of, not exactly eerie, but weird. Kim asked why I was making popcorn so late at night, and I told her I really didn't know. She also asked why I was wearing a wool hat when it was 95 degrees outside, and when I told her she chalked it up to me having had a few beers, starting at 9:32. We are in the same time zone, right? I could tell you were doing the same. Tell me what kind of beer you were having, and how you made your popcorn, so we can see it that matches. |

Tilley Hemp was that wacky announcer at Woodstock. He was the guy who said, “Whoa. Do you see that guy with the big tomato head?” It kind of became a slogan in the mud pits.

It isn't just the way they look that has kept me from wearing a Tilley hat. It was saying "Tilley" that was ultimately the deal breaker. That, and the way they look.

Does everyone at idiotjam wear hats? As far as your question goes, the males do seem to all wear hats of some sort, now that I think about it. Vinton is the sunniest place in Iowa, so it is necessary. Of course, everyone wears them at night, too. Habit, I guess. I don’t recall anyone but Doug wearing one on stage. |
