We're gonna talk about hats. Yes, HATS. What kind and how many do you have? Golf, baseball, cowboy, Sherlock Holmes, straw, military, designer, caps, bowler, color, logo, and the total number that you own. You can even include the "SAN FRANCISCO, A2K Gathering" cap.
I have a box full of A2K SF hats minus one (thanks again), 2 fiber sun hats that I never use (unfortunately), and one turquoise hat {grin} as well as 2 winter hats. Actually, I arely use any of them. So, that's 5 not counting all the SF hats.

I don't think we wanna hear about my hats. I have at least 40 hats. From baseball caps to polar fleece winter hats to faux fur hats to felt fedoras to sun visors worn golfing to a beautiful picture hat from about 1895 to some hats I had custom made at a milliner to ... no, don't get me started
my after work socks today are little white ankle socks with a teensy tiny lime green ruffle around the top - and you know, don't you, that ironed socks were in that poll cuz i just KNEW in my heart of hearts about superG!

I always wear hats similar to the one in my avatar. The only hair I have left is what sticks out at the edges.

HATS!!!!!!!!
I got millions! (well, sorta!)
Well - because I'm an Aussie, I have an Akubra - that's a jackeroo (cowboy) hat.
Because I'm a fair-skinned little thing, in this country, I have about 20 assorted sun-hats, 5 of which I use regularly.
I have a couple of felt and/or woollen hats, which seldom get any use, because it doesn't get cold enough.
I have a couple of caps, mostly bearing the brand of some drug company or newfangled drug, that I wear for tennis, or bush walking, or hooning round in the convertible.
I have beanies that I never wear.
I have a couple of stylish dress hats, that I never wear, but like to look at.
I have no A2K hats. The translation from US$ to $AUS made them hideously expensive.
I mostly wear hats in summer and seldom go out without one. Even in winter, I wear a hat in the sun. Hats are quite common here, but I notice that, in Europe, even in midsummer, hats are not worn that often. In Greece, I was hard pressed to find a hat to buy. I guess the need for sun protection is really drummed into us here!

I honestly don't own a single hat. Is that sad? Can I still be in the club?

I've got an inherited crushable fedora-type thing I'll never wear and a couple of woolly/fleecy things to keep my head from freezing in the Wisconsin winter.

SCoates, You're welcome in any club of mine! But you gotta remember, I'm also a member, and that doesn't speak to well of you!

margo, Send me your mailing address by PM, and I'll send you a "SAN FRANCISCO, A2K Gathering, April 9-12, 2004" cap - gratis. No currency exchange needed.
Huh. Imagining margo hooning and turning chap laps in her hotted up auto.
(A McDonalds in downtown Seattle is much reviled for playing old C&W along the sidewalk to discourage loitering. Thing is, I liked a lot of the tunes. Using Hank Williams, Sr. as torture. Jr., yes. Sr., no.)

I have a few hats that I never wear because I don't like wearing hats.

The only hat, I ever wore, is the one on my avatar (though later got a "real" one :wink: ).

Hats always give me a headache. I prefer my hair blowing in the breeze.

Hooning?
What is it with Aussienglish language?
PD - my hooning is ever so refined, I'll have you know.
A friend has this great Saab convertible, and we do some country tripping, with the top down wherever possible, bearing in mind our extremely pale Irish skin, and the heat here. In summer, the roof and aircon is just essential.

I thought you all drove around in Land Cruisers with a dozen threadbare spare tires (excuse me, tyres) strapped to the roof.

Threadbare? Treadbare, maybe. Bald, definitely. My mind rolled under the futon, and I'm too lazy to fish it out.
