Matthew was in line ahead of me at the supermarket deli. Lunchtime. I asked if I could take his picture and he said, “Sure.” He called his hat a “Tam O’Shanter, but without the button up here in the middle.” I thought it was a beret, but he knows better than I.
“Do you wear it a lot?” I asked.
“All the time! I used to have a wool one, but I wore it out, so I just got this a little while ago.”
We talked some more while we waited for our orders. Lo and behold! We work in the same industry; we used to work in the same building; and we have a couple of mutual friends. They don’t wear hats, though.

Actually, I used to wear a Tam before I wore a cowboy hat.
cool. Isn't there something written somewhere about 6 degrees of separation?
