I almost always wear a hat, it used to be a cowboy hat when I wasn't working, but not working is a rare thing now. Someone that I used to work with and joke around with started calling me Matt In The Hat, and it stuck. On games, I am usually Matt The Knife.

There was one local guy that used wrought iron railings as sides on his truck....sturdy, but a lot of extra weight. My buddy and I called him "old iron sides" points for who can figure that one out. We kinda laughed when we saw him, because 90% of the time he was pulling into an area empty as we were leaving loaded. He was also one of the ones that the yard guys stood 2 feet away from his truck as he unloaded.
We use futon frames for sides. Right now my truck has them u-bolted to a ladder rack. I call it "the cage"
