I should add that I actually own one of these things (I'm a U of A alum), but I'll be damned if I ever wear one within range of a news photographer...

25. JFK was wary about wearing a strange hat in public.
From the internets ---

The mad hatters sent Kennedy at least a dozen gifts of their product, but all in vain. They never did succeed in making a regular hat-wearer of JFK. Kennedy hated the gift headgear that was part and parcel of stump politics, and would regularly duck and dodge the efforts to plunk a hat on his head. In one poignant moment, on the day he was assassinated, Kennedy had been presented with a cowboy hat by the president of the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce. When the chant started for Kennedy to put it on, he demurred: ''I'll put it on in the White House on Monday," he promised. ''If you come up there you'll have a chance to see it then."

57. That looks like a old racist cartoon of asian people.
It's all there. The hat, the squinty eyes, the big toothy grin, and the fact that they look almost identical. I never noticed how much Chelsea looks like her mother. She's such a cutie I guess I never looked at any of her features that closely before.

Just a slight difference. I generally don't like wearing things on my head anyway.
