Yikes! A roofer soon to be seeing an oncologist! Okay, okay, it's a funny joke - but the roofers (and all people who work outdoors) around here wear hats, something to cover their necks, and full sleeve shirts.

My husband was wondering recently about pro golfers and whether they wear their hats when they go out to eat or just let the white dome show . . . Can't remember who it was he was looking at at the time, but I've seen him on TV and it's quite startling.
