On of those woolly stretchy old lady hats. The only ones that would fit my big head (sob!). Also known as a "Bennie" in UK as Bennie from Crossroads wore one! This is an old soap that was around in 60's ad redone just recently but still cr*p.
Whoops forgot to check my back up hat for my party hat..I like this one too....
I am a Top-hat.
I'm a bit of a jack-of-all-trades; creative, in a stylistic sort of way, a little vain, a little dark, perhaps a little archaic. I get on alright with people, but I can take them or leave them.
Dear Ellis
Never said there was anything wrong with it just said I'm not.
Lived up there on the Vt. Canada border for awhile and met some real groovy french canadian folk.
I am fluent in sign language and I met quite a few deaf americans in the area,I was constantly asked if I was french Canadian, thus I was always saying I am not "french".
There was a store run by 2 old sisters, it was right on the border, half in the U.S half in Can. the register had both kinds of money.
There was also a beautiful, but very old and falling apart church across from the store and we helped tear it down, they allowed us to haul away any building materials we could use, real cool stained glass windows, I lived on land that was communal about 60 of us "hippies",and my sweetie built a house there, I sure do miss it. So beautiful.
Sorry if you thought I meant this in any type of offensive way,

No offense taken, Ralphmarie. I just like to be sure of these things. My DH is French, and I have to stand up for the sweet little Frog. I'm British, so we tease each other alot.
Your house must have been BEAUTIFUL!
I love living so close to the border. We used to go "across" for picnics a lot, but not of late because of our pathetic dollar.
HAHAHA Ilene, when I saw you had been in here I just KNEW that you would be a party hat too! Party at the gym, party at the club, party on the job, party harty at the house!
Ilene, you're French! Now tell me something. Not to get political or anything, but how offended do you get at being an object of scorn? Or do you generally keep your heritage to yourself?
Oh, my god. I was just looking at your location. I'm such a dweeb. I forgot that you live in Ontario. I always assume that everyone is American.
I wonder what happens in places like New Orleans? Do they just have a "screw you" attitude at references to things like "Freedom Fries"? heh heh. I have lots of American friends, but none of them are French. Well, that's what they tell me.
Don't laugh Ilene....I met ellis here and we found out that we are within walking distance of each others houses Hmmph!..and here I was trying to meet people in far away exotic places......
BTW ellis...in New Orleans they just anglicize everything that is French...I had the worst time asking people for directions when I was there because I prounced all the French names in French - no one could understand what street me and my friend were looking for! For example Dumaine was pronounced as Doomayne...it made my head hurt after a few days....
What a great city it was though! I loved it! One of my favorite vacations ever .
I'm too much of a geek to be a genuine hat of any sort. I was hoping my result would be 'white-hat' or 'black-hat', and am disappointed that those results weren't even available. I probably think the cup-holder story is funny.
or a Top Hat

And yes, I am probably a bit of both. More like a geek with anti-social tendencies.
