You may not have intended it but you're halfway to the Cuban exile look. You'll need that ridiculous hat, a white Guayabera shirt and a 6.00 x 50 Cohiba Toro to complete the look. And if you want to go all in, get a '61 Caddy (the one with the big fins).
The Blog: A compendium of thoughts on politics, world affairs, economics, pop culture and social issues, from the center right perspective of me a University of Virginia graduate who spent a career in the world's greatest Navy keeping my mouth shut about politics and social issues (ok, publicly keeping it shut). Those days are over! I've also invited a few friends to join in, so pull up a chair and chime in where you will. Keep it clean, civil, concise and relevant.
The Fish: The fish is a "coat of arms" for the blog, symbolizing three formative influences in the life of the blog founder. The first is his experience at the University of Virginia--symbolized most importantly by the fish itself, or a caricature of a "Wahoo", the fish we have acquired as an informal nickname. Additionally there is the sword, the sword of a Cavalier. It is not wielded in a threatening manner, as this is a civil blog. But it is there, should it be needed. Secondly, there is the influence of 21 years in the Navy--symbolized by the anchor on the Wahoo's fin (and again, the sword) . Finally, there is the bowler, tuxedo, and monocle, symbols of a refined, intellectual conservatism, or what I seek to encourage here.
The Policy: I take FULL responsibility ONLY for what I write. I do not take responsibility, nor will I be held responsible, for what my guest bloggers write or for what those who offer comments write. I will occasionally exercise my right to edit/delete both blog posts and comments if they do not meet my view of what clean, civil, concise and relevant mean.

With that hat, you could get a ride on his/her? motorcycle.
It IS fetching...
You look like Truman Capote.
GG you scoundrel. I challenge you to find even ONE photo of Capote in a Pork pie.
Sally - It really IS fetching. As in, "Hey you, how about fetching me a beer."

So, I'm guessing you're in your mid-40's in age but well over 70 in spirit.
I so want to hate it, I really do. But you actually pull it off.
The upturn of the right brim of the hat signals to folks like the new White House Social Secretary that you are simply fabulous.
You need to get your photo reversal thing figured out.
