I like wearing baseball caps when not spending long periods in intense
sun (then, it's my big floppy canvas sailing hat, I always know which
way to put it on because the mildew goes on the right) but the
frequency with which they blow off is maddening. It makes for great
MOB practice and I'm proud to say I've never left one behind. I also
have a fair collection from boats I've designed, Titanic Expeditions,
etc.

My constant running and boat maneuvering to retrieve wayward caps has
given me a bit of a complex. I can't recall ever in my life seeing
someone else lose theirs. I've suspected for years that there might
be something strange about the shape of my head and I suddenly
realized that this photo from my recent cruise confirms it.

What do you think? Do I need to retire my collection of caps? Was
there never any hope of my being a professional ball player, aside
from not being able to hit, catch, or run?

If your hats blow off, please let me know, I'll feel much better.
