Now we know why, after 1945, fedoras were made with such wide brims.

And after the Cuban Missile Crisis was averted, brims became increasingly narrow. I guess folks relaxed a bit.

Ah, I get it now. The sombrero was invented during the Cuban crisis, to protect the population. It was a sort of quick civil defense system.

That's a good answer if somebody asks why you're wearing a hat: "As protection against atomic bombs".

And just look at them as though they were from another planet when saying it.

I thought this was an ad for something to deal with that 5 0'clock shadow some of us have to deal with.

You're safer with an open umbrella, there's more shade.

Only if it's a beaver felt umbrella.

Their faces would get toasted ... but with those backward brims, they wouldn't become rednecks!

Maybe you've hit on the explanation for the backwards baseball hat?

It's the anti-redneck effect,.....that's totally logical.
