Thread Name: Folklore: US terms
Subject: RE: Folklore: US terms
Art, my man! I'm throughly astounded! Twenty-four ways to crease a cowboy hat? If that ain't folklore I'll eat, well.... my hat, I guess. Who outside of the Wild, Wild West itself would have ever thunk it? And each style of crease is a statement about the hat owner's personality, no less. A psychological and sociological treatise in miniature, all wrapped up in felt and beaver with a band of leather (or rattlesnake skin) around it! Cool way beyond merely copacetic!
And to think that GUEST accused this thread of being BS!
(That's not to say that this post isn't BS. But, if it is, it is BS of a most aromatic variety.)
