Show DavisEntertainment County Clipper Davis met a knight in dingy armor We son has always this thing about Our hats. mean, he LOVES them. 1 le always has. From the time ! he was just a baby he has been I lascinated by them. He loves I to kx)k at them. He loves to But more than play with them. loves to wear he else, anything Jon was little When them. I there were people in our neighborhood w ho didn't know what color his hair was because whenever they saw him he was the red, wearing a hat - usually blue and yellow one that was his favorite for a long, long I 1 time. On a breezy day when he about 18 months old, Jon was I and were walking along (well. OK -- was walking along; Jon was kicking back in a comfortable padded stroller, gnawing on a sucker and carrying on an animated and completely unintelligible conversation with r l c erv dog. cat or bird we saw) w hen suddenly, a big gust of , w ind blew Jon's favorite cap right off his head. 1 1 'at! at! Jon cried, reach- me anxiously for his now-bar- e head. I dashed (oh, all right -- I lumbered) after the hat for about 10 yards or so, but the r Thursday, July r-- v my mind as I lixiked at the teenager was scary" But there was nothing scary J C. By Joseph Walker brisk spring breeze carried it more swiftly than I could run. It was as if the little beanie had sprouted legs and was springing straight toward a busy highway. And if it blew out there amid the onrushing cars, trucks and buses . well, I didnt want to think about it. And I certainly didn't want to see it. After all. hatricide isn't pretty. I turned back to Jonathan, who was climbing out of the stroller to go after his hat himself. Thankfully he wasn't as fast as his hat, and I got back to him in time to catch him as he started to tumble out of the stroller. But now I was faced with a parental dilemma: do I go after the hat and leave Jon alone, or do I ignore the hat and accept the tearful disappointment of my child? I was so focused on the quick decision I had to make that I didn't notice the truck that pulled to stop alongside . . the highway. But I started to pay more attention when a bare chested young man leapt from the passenger's side of the hair truck, his shoulder-lengt- h whipping wildly around his neck and face in the breeze. 1 le snared Jons hat just as it was tumbling to the edge of the highway, then held it up, waving it triumphantly as he trotted toward us. Jon w as. of course, delight-- ed. at! at! he exclaimed, smiling more broadly than Id seen him smile since . . . well, since we first bought that hat for him. But I felt a little trepidation as the young man approached us. 1 le was tattooed and had a jagged scar on his face. And there was this chained ornament dangling from part of his anatomy one doesn't normally consider a prime candidate for piercing. The first word that popped into about the guy who crouched down to gently put the hat back on Jon's head. Hey buddy' the young man said, almost sweetly, did you lose something?" Jon smiled, chattered something inToddler-ese.an- d reached out to grab the dangly thing on the kid's chest. The young man played with him. then stood to receive my thanks. Hey don't worry about it, he said casually. I know how Id feel if I lost my hat. I glanced up at the hat on his head. The slogan printed on it was obscene. OK, so mabe I can't turn Jonathan's into a knight in shining armor. But what's wrong with a knight in dingy armor? Although it is tempting to paint everyone we meet in bold colors of absolute hue. the simple fact is that most of humanity comes in various shades of gray Within all of us there is both good stuff and bad stuff. The way I see it. reality doesn't make our heroes any less heroic. It just makes them more real. And sometimes a little less... you know.. .scary.
