I've always wondered where one buys a ball cap that has the bill in the back. I've only ever seen them with a front facing bill in stores.

I always wondered WHY anyone would buy a hat with the bill over their neck. It is like buying a tennis racket with no strings, totally useless.

Cowboy hats have the bill on ALL sides! Problem solved. And it makes the morons really stand out if they wear a cowboy hat backwards, or sideways.

1960/70/80's on river kayaks and rafts, zippy sunscreen.

Yikes.

Lots of precancerous freezing, blade work and lotions/potions...even some burning!

Get screened folks...I did three years ago and, while a pain, compared to the colonoscopy rigamarole, this is a walk.
Just had two more AKs carved out myself. All those years thinking the sun was good for us. I was never a sunbather but I was outside all day every day all summer surfing, biking, playing ball.

Try telling that to Paul Teutul Sr. I'm sure you will get some constructive feedback from him.

MF and his earring are interesting actually. I read an interview by him, where he stated that any time he travels, he wears a diamond earring of sufficient value to pay for his burial should he die out of the country, or to have his body shipped back. Apparently an old pirate thing.

Smart idea! "He Had A Quiet Way About Him, A Walk And A Talk That Just Wasn’t Normal Around Here. He Strolled Like A Man In The Park Without A Care Or Worry In The World, Like He Had On An Invisible Coat or diamonds in his ear just in case he had to pay the undertaker.”
