1. I think he wants to be Walter Winchell or something. |
|
Or maybe he fancies himself right out of "The Front Page".
I think he gives new meaning to the word "dorky" wearing it.

3. I wonder where the "Press" label is on it? |
|
Yes, he's well on his way to being a modern day Winchell, by report on sex and drugs constantly.

6. The first time I saw him in that hat I thought "What a schmuck" |
|
You know he had a show on Fox News when it first started. Darkly painted with the old fan blowing on his desk and a neon light just outside the fake window.

8. To quote Colin Powell..."Let's not go there"... |

I'm a gay man, of course. And while there are things that are quite titillating, THAT imagery is not one of them.

And I can kick this panty-waist's perfumed ass from here to Dearborn.
Yeah, I'm a cranky S-O-B. If you'd been dead for 50 years, you'd be cranky, too. No food, no booze, no broads. Haven't even been to a horserace! Now get me a porterhouse steak, done rare, a Tom Collins and a pack of Luckies. I've got some kickin' to do!
--bkl Uh, Mr. BKL, that's not exactly the ad campaign the company had in mind.

11. The hat makes the man... |
|
No one wears a hat now. It might have been better then. Is that message? When I was 15 I bought a cowboy hat. It was cool for maybe 6 months. Now men pull the hat for a role in a movie. Women hardly ever wear them except in really high class churches. Understand that its hats,not the overpriced handouts at Caterpillar. Thats where it started. Now every damn fool has a cap plastered with icons officially sponsored by the highest bidder. Made in sweat shops,somewhere when and where the workers suffer has no importance for the consumer.

13. a dork in a stupid hat |
|
He belongs back in his basement bachelor apartment. He Spouts his National Enquirer bullshit and is laughably refered to as a journalist by the RW media. Walter Winchell was more than a hat with a pissy attitude and politically whorish ideas.

15. I don't believe that it's actually a fedora |
|
Edited on Fri Feb-13-04 11:03 AM by MrsMatt
Fedoras have larger brims, and are not typically constructed of straw. Unfortunately, I can't tell you exactly WHAT the name of the hat is - I can't find MrMatt's resource book (he's a costume designer, and is particularily fond of hats - he wears a black fedora on occasion, and it looks mighty fine on him).

17. Now, now, let's not blame the hat |
|
I personally own 3 fedora's and they really do look sharp when I wear them.
Unfortunately, hats don't get the right of refusal when it comes to whose head they will spend their lives on. Pity. 'Cause I'm feelin' a bit sorry for that hat's particular lot in life.
Sittin' on top of an idiot.

Because I wear a fedora as well.
He's an idiot. Fedoras are cool. Fedoras cannot, however, make an idiot cool.

19. I meant no offense to my fedora wearing friends |

Just that Drudge looks like an ass, and I think it's cute how he thinks he's like a real live newsman or something.

21. I Didn't Know A Guy Could Look Uncool In A Fedora |
|
But, somehow Matt pulls it off. Every time i wear mine, every time i see someone with one, i think "That's a cool look!"
Then, i see Drudge. That guy could ruin a one person party. The Professor
