It's ok Steve. I'm sure don was putting his "best" foot forward when you took him hunting.

Hooks ability with a rifle and quick thinking has saved him and on more than one occasion. Once was when in Cameroon, when marauders heard of his shooting a pig at some distance. The news of his prowess spread rapidly which caused the bandits to steer clear of or own DDRHook and those in his camp.

Later he saved himself and timg53 from harm in the ice cream isle of Walmart. Seems that the men were charged by two Spandex hippos, who I suppose, thought the men were getting between them and the ice cream freezer. Although no rifle in hand, Hookers quick thinking and reaction time saved the boys. Hook quickly tossed two Twinkies in front of the charging Spandex hippos thus distracting the beestes allowing for our men a rapid retreat.

Later, lamenting that Twinkies are no longer available ,Hooker determined that the best decision going forward is to completely avoid unnecessary danger to the boys and henceforth they will avoid the ice cream isle.

When Hooker returns to the States for Christmas this week. Timg953 suggests the boys opt for other options such as visiting the low calorie isle.

No photos are available of the WalMart incident and the only causality in the described melee was Hookers old hat. And thus the story of why Hooker has the new and becoming head ware.

Tim,

I'm sure he was but it took me a while to work out why he kept walking in circles! rotflmo

Elton,

If you let him near the Walmart just make sure to keep him away from the butchery........... and perhaps the canned meat shelves as well! jumping

Often I see postings on AR seeking sage advise regarding of all sorts of matters.

My situation. A dilemma.

Hook has a lot of his stateside gear store in a sea shipping container at our home. Well last week I discovered a rodent had chewed thru the rubber door seal and made nest in Hookers old motor cycle jacket... and worse chewed a hole in upper left chest.

My question to the Sages of AR.

Should I buy some sort of patch and cover it...or throw it away and pretend I know nothing or perhaps place a patch on it and buy him a hat?

What are your suggestions?

Perhaps you could find a large gay/lesbian bike club patch to cover up the hole. I know don would love to show his tolerance and cultural diversity when he rides.

When he rides what exactly?

Dallas Daily News reports today that there was a large crowed gathered just out side the international exit gates today at the DFW International Airport.

The crowd comprised mostly of women pushed and shoved attempting to get closer to a notable international figure.

It seems there was a stir on the Accurate Reloading forums over a series of posts made in the last 24 hours. News quickly spread thru the Texas Red Neck community of a new fashion statement and break thru in men's outdoor apparel ,most notably a bold new look in head ware. Posts were made from around the world commenting on the sweeping panache of DDRHook and his African prowness.

Mr. DDRHook was immediately spirited away by a waiting car (not to be confused with police patrol car as on previous occasions).

Rumor has it that DDRHook will next appear in public at the Dallas Safari Club this January.It is also said that he will be in attendance at the Annual Accurate Reloading Dinner where he will display the latest in the Hatters art..

Whatever you do just make sure you keep him away from any taxidermists displays because if he gets anywhere near a pig of any sort and a taxidermist asks him about mounting preferences there's gonna be BIG trouble!

DDR Hooker.

My wife after seeing you in the dashing hat suggested that I up grade my appearance and presence.

So where can I obtain a genuine Don Hooker Signature hat?
There was Crocodile Dundee's lid also the Harrison Ford fedora so why not the African Dandy Don Hooker Hat?
