Today is Crazy Hat Day at Woodland Junior High.  Students can wear inventive headwear--wigs, caps, top hats--all in the name of raising money for Juvenile Diabetes.  We've dispatched our trusty photographer to the scene to capture the craziness, so we'll have pictures for you later this afternoon. we have pictures!

Fun hat fact:  You can determine your USA hat size by measuring the circumference of your head, then dividing by pi and rounding off to the nearest one-eighth inch.  (OK, maybe it's not so much fun as educational.)

Bonus fun hat fact:  The expression "mad as a hatter" traces its origins back to the days when hatters--people who made hats--used mercury in the process of crafting felt hats.  The hatters inhaled mercury fumes while working which led to odd behavior.  In the US, the condition was called the "Danbury Shakes" since Danbury, Connecticut was home to a booming hat-making industry.
