Eight Actual "Fog-Hats" that Foghat Lead Singer Dave Peverett Could Have Worn on Stage

1. A sombrero filled with dry ice


2. A fedora fitted with a small ventilation system around the brim, attached through tubing to a backstage fog machine preset to go off during the chorus of “Slow Ride”


3. A traditional Cherokee rain-dance headdress


4. A foam dome stocked with a pair of ice-cold Coors Lights that produce vapor as they rapidly thaw from the body heat of Peverett’s dancing


5. An official crew baseball cap from the set of John Carpenter’s 1980 horror film “The Fog”


6. A Yarmulke cut from a bed of tropical moss, raising the relative humidity around Peverett to 100 percent


7. A top hat-shaped cloud of fog continuously encircled around Peverett’s head in a matrix of low-frequency sonic pulses emanating from Tony Stevens’s powerful bass guitar


8. A standard men’s bowler cap (They’re huge in London.)

Passwords

I work in IT for a fairly well known company, but I work for one of the smaller branches. It's just me and one other person and let me just say, he isn't the brightest bulb. We are suppose to change the passwords to the computers every three months, and I was going to be gone on the day that we were suppose to do it. I wrote down the list of passwords that he needed to... Read More » change it to in an Excel doc and told him that he needed change them before he left on Friday, but after everyone is gone for the weekend. Monday I get back and everyone is asking me why they cannot get onto their computer. It turns out the guy didn't like the passwords I had created and made up his own, and then forgot what they were.
