Police: Man stabs son for wearing hat in church

From the "You Can't Make This Stuff Up" Department. Baltimore Division-

Police said a 58-year-old man stabbed his teenage son after he refused to take off his hat at church earlier in the day. The father and his 19-year-old son got into an argument on Sunday afternoon. That's when police said the father went to a car, got a knife and stabbed his son in the left buttock and fled. The son was taken to University of Maryland Medical Center for treatment. The father's name was withheld pending his arrest.

Now That's a Hat !

Some of you have noticed that one of the running jokes on 3RE has to do with hats. I'm struck by how many funny ones there are out there, especially worn by clergy and royalty. A friend sent this picture to me today. The couple is Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej and Queen Sirikit. Actually her hat is something too.
