Royal Order of Hipsters
One of my favorite, funky web sites is Fez-O-Rama (makers of handcrafted fez hats). I've always been intrigued by fez hats, especially the richly embroidered and bejeweled ones, with the little gold tassels. There's something goofy (picture an army of Shriners on scooters in any parade), exotically "Ali Baba and his 40 Thieves-ish" about a fez...it's one of those things that is "so unhip it's hip."
I'm thinking of having some made for a Stumpjumpers club at Stumpjack Coffee...a not-so-secret society of creative thinkers, java junkies, doodlers, bad poets, surfers, ne'er-do-wells and street preachers.
Picture an army of fez adorned Stumpjumpers on scooters in any parade...
Get the Stumpjack Scat, a weekly newsletter of what's going on at the Stump: music, events, specials, contests to win cool stuff, newsletter-only deals, and a few embarrassing pictures.
