Did someone too hit close to home?

Touche. :mrgreen:
I have never worn cowboy boots in my life, not even as a child. But I did wear a "Montana Peak" slouch hat one time with a kilt when discussing the Scots/Irish connections on traditional cowboy culture. 
Personally, there's nothing wrong with a slouch hat, INMHO, in hot weather -- the Highlanders in the South African (Boer) War did it. It just makes sense, as you pointed out.
I was really attempting to point out the aforementioned connections more than anything else.
Cheers, 
Todd
