wear a different hat today


 Choose a hat (or several) and tell me who you have now become. These were all taken in Japan but I have been watching then all over the world getting up to their pranks. There just seemed to be so many in Japan  they became a bit of an obsession and became my main holiday snap shots (as well as man-hole covers).

maybe the hats are actually aliens - come to organise us.

I'm almost sure of it Rob, but which one do you want to meet? Why?

Well Jack, I do like the stripy ones, but they all seem pretty jazzy and on top of things but the poor little colourless guy in "M" looks lonely and like he has a hankering for something from the brightly lit shop - so I would like to ask him what he wants and go get it for him - maybe that would cheer him up.

Oh, hang on a minute - is that a shop or a pachinko parlour - maybe the little guy has a gambling problem - maybe that's why he's down on his luck and looking forlorn!

Do you know the Godley & Creme song from the 80's - "I pity inanimate objects"? Seems like a highly appropriate background track for this conversation.

Well spotted M is outside a Pachinko parlour and lost so much he has gone very pale. Perhaps he should hold hands with the I group and go home safely. No, I don't know the song, you'll have to sing it for me.

I'll wear the red and white striped one on my brick head, very appropriate. Happy Holidays, Jack.

A very stylish hat Ersi but your brick head looks quite delicate. I hope this is not really the case, although Christmas can be a difficult time
