I consider myself mostly a white hat person, though sometimes I strap on that gray hat just because it's the only way to get things done. I once set upon my head a red fedora....but honestly, it just didn't fit me quite right. Bit squeezy 'round the front. Very informative article on white and black hats people wear.

Glad to hear you liked the article. Yes, every once in a while you just have to put on that grey hat... but we should avoid it when we can. As for the "little black dress", black just so happens to be slimming. But there is another connotation. Often 'naughty' is considered sexy. How often in the media do we see a villaness or an anti-heroin to whom we could aptly apply the phrase "When she was good she was very very good, but when she was bad she was better"? As for your taste in clothing, you take pride in the fact that you are an "evil" gm, so I wouldn't be surprised. Still, it's mostly a media and stereotype thing. Christopher, welcome to my blog!

It is the source of all my power. Paraphrased actual conversation: Professor: Only one student finished the test, in the other class. Student: It was the guy in the hat, wasn't it? Professor: Yes.

But if they wouldn't, that might be a good way for you to go in disguise. It might wind up being a Clark Kent/Superman type disguise. Seemingly flimsy, but it works.
