Take your hats off

I attended a graduation recently and was saddened to see the way people dressed for the occasion. The really big thing that made me sad was to see all the men and boys with their baseball caps on during the whole time.

Another disturbing thing was all the people who kept going in and out of the hall. A lot of them went to get drinks from the machines out front. I believe people could sit for a couple of hours without a drink. If they really had to have one they could have gone outside and stayed there.

Just a little ditty to remind the men and boys: “Poppity Pin Poppity Pin Boys must take their hats off when they come in.”
