    Funeral Fedoras?

    Yesterday I was hanging out at the local Christan supply store (Others have bars, that is my hangout.) and a minister of my acquaintance came in. He had performed a funeral service service earlier. We talked some shop and he asked me the oddest thing, I suppose because I almost always have a...

    Comments on the Akubra Squatter

    I have seen many references to COW here, but I cannot deduce what it is exactly? Is it a forum and is it related in anyway to the Fedora Lounge? Are there any other common acronyms or abbreviations a new member would find useful? Thanks in advance.
