Hey...dorky is "in" at airshows.

Of course, maybe that's one of the reasons young people aren't
flying. Too many dorky hats, and guys wearing dark socks and
sandals...?

Hmm. I got my lat Tilly hat FROM REI. It was the only place I could
find that carried them.


I think mine is the REI explorer... About 1/2 the price of the Tilly and is
much better at attracting all the hot airplane groupies who hang out at
fly-in's. ;-)

Both of them? Wow, must be some hat.


Careful now. He said they were hot, not that they looked nice. They're
attracted to hat because they want to cool off.
