@gleick Love nature

@gleick Let cooler heads prevail

@JB105 @gleick Maybe he thinks Buckingham Palace is a better place for a gig now that Andrew's gone.

@gleick The marching band at my high school wore hats like that, about a half century ago.

@gleick they got it all wrong - it's the current guy who wears a Russian hat

@gleick

not widely known but abraham lincoln moonlit as a castle guard for the wicked witch of the west.

o-wee-oh.

@gleick He looks like a color-inverted version of those british soldiers(?) with the funny fuzzy hats.

@gleick Is this how Buckingham palace guards got their hats? Originally they were top hats, but they got a redesign after a particularly snowy winter.

@gleick

Ah yes, Marge Simpson's distant ancestor.

@gleick Four score and seven inches of snow our fathers brought plows and shovels…

@gleick No, I am a bronze popsicle

@gleick I didn't realize Abraham Lincoln used to be one of the guards at Buckingham Palace.

@gleick Lincoln still keeping a cool head in the worst times.

@gleick Nice hat.

@gleick - Insulated stovepipe hat!
