Hi there
Way back in the days of silent movies - late 1890s to about the 1920s - a sign would come up on screens imploring ladies to please remove their hats. Otherwise, can you imagine what it would be like to sit behind a lady wearing a high many-feathered monstrosity of a head-piece?
A friend said to me, "Thank goodness, that's all over and done with."
'But .. Is it?" I said. Really?" I had my doubts.
I have been to many conventions, many stage musicals, many lectures over the years. And there have always been guys, and some women, wearing duck bill caps. When they look up at the stage the duck bills shoot up high to block the vision of the person sitting behind.
"You're too picky," said my friend. He gave me a salute by flicking the side of his duck-billed cap.
I groaned. "I'm giving up on you," I said.
