the hat

The person under this hat is important, smart, kind, and clever.  But the hat is really special.  Look at that weave.  Wow.

the nature of clever.

What if I were clever all the time?  By the nature of the proposal, I would have to get more and more clever.  Otherwise, my cleverness would cease to be clever. I would be tedious, like now, except at a higher level; presumably...except, of course, that was clever. I continue.

I swear I just took these down...

It is the time of the year when every year it gets harder and harder not to fall off the roof.
