    Shorpy All Stars

    A thread to exclusively post all those great Shorpy hat photos

    Great Idea!

    But rather than simply posting a link to a supersized photo, why not add a downsized photo via a photo hosting site.

    Indeed, I would prefer to do it that way. I'm currently at work and the hospital IT people have banned all photo hosting sites

    Poor pre & post natal nutrition, high bacterial loads of human pathogens & high parasite loads coupled with a diet relatively high in bulk & low in protein & animal fats, particularly saturated fats. (MMmmm saturated fats!)
