Overheard at the Derby

I do like your hat.
really?
yes. it reminds me of a lampshade i once knew.
really?
yes. like you, the lamp wore it slightly askew. 
you mean crooked?
aye. awry. cocked just so over one eye.
really?
yes. it's a fabulous look.
thank you. is your horse running today?
horse? i came but to see the hats.
