‘Tis well known that wearing a baseball cap back-to-front reduces your IQ by 50%.

I do, if the sun is coming from behind me. Of course in which case I would almost never have light in my eyes (maybe if walking towards a very big mirror).

My Gamecocks play Texas A&M* Sept. 30. I’ll spread this one around before.
Nearly as good as the story I told awhile back of a car being parked at the local surgery.
Man drives into car park and rides up on kerb, stops gets out to inspect for damage and removes hat, puts hat back on and gets back in car, repeat three times.
In Australia they have a saying about drivers who wear hats in cars, simply, “beware the hat”.

Yep. Any driver wearing a hat should be given a wide berth.

Timmy, I’d be interested in your opinion on this story
Oh, and if there was ever a good use of quotation marks at the Daily Mail they should have been applied to her job as “model”.

I bet you were ;o)
Celebrity Big Brother next year?

My guess is it was meant to be some well paid escorting job that went bad. Maybe she turned up and lacked the necessary class for high class work, caused a fuss in a posh hotel and got stuffed in a bag until they could figure out what to do with her.

One of my Dad’s particular bugbears was old coots wearing trilby hats. They invariably drove at 45 mph on single lane country roads and refused to pull in to allow people to pass. Bloody menaces.

Simply doesn’t ring true, does it? Has she a porn film coming out soon? Anyway, she gets her 15 minutes of fame.

I call them “45ers.” They do 45 in a 55; when they get to a 35, they do 45. It’s their speed.

The kidnapped model: when reading it I tripped over and fell flat at “… model, 20, …mom of a 2-year-old…..”

Well I’m an old coot then too.
I was tootling down the road a few years back when some idiot pulled out from a red stop light.
Turned out he was a driving instructor.
