I love hats.

Gotta look the part, that’s what my clown teacher said. I was checking out other clowns and decided that long hair would get in the way of a true clown…

Time was ripe and the cut was quick. I can’t say that it’s easy to get used to. But it certainly is more clownesque. Like in “The Emperor’s New Clothes” one should listen to what children have to say about one’s apparel. After my clown show today, I took off my make-up. Somehow some of the kids watched me, and they said: “You look better when you are a clown…”

Thank you, kiddos, for a wee word of wisdom.

    Hello Irma,

    Your brand new hat looks great and matches to your wonderful blue eyes. It looks a bit like Irma la Douce as far as I remember the movie… (must have been around 1965).

    I noticed that my eyes look blue here, but actually they are greenish. Never mind. Thanks for the compliment.
