What hat do you wear while browsing LibraryThing?

Spawned off of another discussion where Tim asked...

What hat do you wear when browsing LibraryThing? I'm hoping it's a big fur hat, or, barring that, a sombrero.

So let's answer him. Enquiring minds want to know. Information wants to be free. etc &etc.

Rules:-
1. Webcam shot from a computer where you have LT open
2. Anything else within the bounds of decency and LT ToS.

I'd have said this belonged in Talk about LibraryThing, myself ;)

I came that close to posting it there and then chickened out!

Today, this one:



(Though I have a lot of hats. I could do a whole series of these!)

A hat? Inside?? What kind of yokels are you people?! ;)

You are free to post a hat picture from your 'outdoors office' down by the beach!

Very pretty, Joan. I do apologise for Collectorator demeaning that term by applying it to me.

>8 felius:

Inside? What do you think I have a Wimax card for?

Does a hood count? Also notice the blanket around my shoulders. Is cold in here...(little voice) well cold for California...



I seldom wear hats qua hats indoors...but sometimes it's more comfortable (see:cold, above). Or I'm running out the door but just gotta check LT one more time...

>4 lilithcat: lilithcat, are they ostrich plumes on your hat? Very fetching.

My preferred hat is shown in my profile picture!

They are, I think. It's vintage, kind of like the wearer!

So it's true what they say about you! You are all wet!

I'm at work right now so I have on my OR scrub cap. It has Santa in his underwear on it.

Oh, we must have a picture!

>20 MerryMary:
But... but... I don't have a webcam at the office! {sniff}

MM, I'll be taking my Christmas caps home so I'll take a picture with my PC at home.

Cute hat, cute girl, cute dog!

>23 nancyewhite:
Is that dog a beagle, or just a beaglesque?

> 26

I like your coat, too.

Very classy!

Got a new hat for Christmas with a "Smarty Jones" logo and the racing silks for Three Chimneys Farm on the side. I love the thoroughbreds.

Okay, I give up. Can't get the picture to post.

One more try on my Smarty Jones hat. Although, I should NOT put up a picture after screwing up two attempts to post. oh well...

What, exactly, are you doing to try to post the image?

Morning, all! Love the hats, keep them coming.

Good picture posting instructions.

If I wore a hat in the house, my mother would sense it from across town, come over, and smack me good. So I am among the naked-headed LTers.

Oh, come now Dayna. If the British Queen can wear a hat indoors for a photograph, so can you.

lilithcat - What, exactly, are you doing to try to post the image?

Everything I can think of, including even reading the instructions on how to post an image.

I get nothing, not even the text of any erroneous html coding, after my intro sentence.

And, of course, it works that time. Maybe my attitude wasn't right earlier.

By George, I think you've got it!

These things always work the last time you try it. Kind of like how when you lose your keys, they're always in the last place you look.

Well, you'd be silly to look in one more place after you found them!

Everybody mis-states this cliche. It should be "Found in the last place you would think to look." Then it makes sense.

Now that I'm home from work, I decided to use this thread to test out my computer's built-in webcam. (The results are passable, but not great.) True, the thing on my head isn't strictly a hat, but it keeps my ears warm when I go play in the snow.

>43 AnnaClaire:

Pardon me asking, but what DO you call those things?

Tam? Beret? Snood?

>44 timspalding:
A Calorimetry. Think of it as a hat for people with long hair.

>45 MerryMary:
Of those three, I think "snood" would be the closest. Tams and berets are worn on the head, not so much around the hair.

Thank you. +2 vocab words today!

Nice eyes. For a bank robber.

Ninja hackers, they're everywhere!

Hilarious, brightcopy. I wish I had thought of that.

Ditto. (Though if I had, people would have been asking me why I hadn't shown off some of my knitting.)

Camera's are refusing to cooperate with computer, sigh... Anyway:

Uh, oh. don't mess with Matt! He'll stab you with his hat!

...if his dog doesn't decide to befriend you first!
