[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 2034309, member: 14646"] Funny story: when my grandfather (former commander in the Navy, WWII) was alive the whole family would got to the Yacht Club every Sunday morning for brunch. I was about 13 years old at the time and my cousin brought here newish boyfriend of about 6 months to brunch. He was wearing a cap in the club at the table. My grandfather, about 75 years old at the time, asked him to take his hat off several time quietly from the head of the table where he sits. The BF was being polite but making excuses as to why he wanted to leave it on. Several of the other adults were whispering to him to remove it. After about 3 minutes my grandfather got up slowly walked over behind the BF's chair and gave a good hard slap to the side, top of his head and sent the hat flying. Lesson learned. Still a good dinner time story when we all get together. [/QUOTE]
