A handsome, well-dressed man striding through the airport caught my eye, initially because of the jaunty plaid baseball cap he was sporting.
Upon second look, I realized it was South Carolina Congressman Jim Clyburn. The cap was quite smart, not only in the sartorial sense. It was snowing in our destination, Washington, D.C. Indeed, would that I had had such a cap myself.
As I suppose Mr. Clyburn to be, I, too, am in our nation's capital about serious political matters, namely a piece of research I'm developing on lapel pins. They're quite the thing here, these little badges....and I wonder how the practice began. If you have any insight, do let me know.
