The Hard Hat Brotherhood:
A Complete Lack of Elegance Calendar 2006

It was brought to the attention of HHBrotherhood Central that a recent article in the Chicago area Chronicle-Telegram states that we, the men of the HHBrotherhood lack elegance.

Red Hat Queen Barbara Lesiak of the Queens of Hearts feels that we are not a group of men in possession of the attribute of being able to be elegant and classy. Now, I ask you, where on earth would anyone ever get that idea? Never mind that the best selling bumper sticker in the Guy Stuff store hails our group as having "Fun, Farting and Friendship", never mind that duct tape is our tool of choice for fixing everything from a leaking roof to a cracked toilet seat (please see picture below, and yes, that is the HHH's very own toilet), never mind that our "official" outfit is a T-shirt with our logo and a Hawaiian shirt over it. I mean, those things not withstanding, how can anyone think us inelegant...if that is even a word.

We have elegance...of a sort. Do we not wear clean underwear to all our events? Do we not proudly sport our neon colored hard hats for all to see? Are we not the ones who extol the virtues of hanging out with those of our own kind in the spirit of true guystuffness? I ask you, what is not elegant about that? But now that it has been said we are in-elegant, in true hard hat fashion we will take up that challenge and show 'um we are not above living up (or down, as the case may be) to our perceived reputation!
