    Two reasons.

    1) I like fedoras. Own 2 at present, light and dark grays. Also like wearing one to work with a suit and tie when the weather's right.

    2) "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield" is one of my favorite episodes (hat tip to whoever can guess that one).

    I'm 55. I had not watched cartoons in years, but my kids were watching this Johnny Bravo one day on cartoon network and I was captivated. They are hilarious!

    Anyway, I liked his good-natured buffoonerous nature. So I adopted him.

    Got the first half. Excellent. This was the microphone that was the workhorse of the American recording industry through most of the Swing era through 1970s Rock and Roll and and Soul music. This is the microphone all the little mics want to be when they grow up.

    Many are still use it (and highly coveted) in today's time.

    Answer: Yes.

    Much like the razors we love and enjoy are from 1900 - 1970s era. So is the venerable workhorse still in use in recording and radio studios world wide.

    Since much of the music, radio and television that we enjoyed and still enjoy was captured with this mic, I chose it as my current avatar.

    I was going to guess that you traded the Bluesmobile for it.

    It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

    Hit it.
