A Revelation
Here's the thing about making someone into a koihead. It can be an effective device for mockery but it is also a means by which I honor those I cherish and esteem. Obviously, only those who fall into the latter category are members of the Exalted Order of Koihead.
I have learned something about koiheads. If you are worthy, the donning of a koihead does nothing to diminish your gravitas. If it makes you look silly, it's probably because you are. Witness:
Walter Cronkite as a Koihead:
Katie Couric as a koihead:
See what I mean? There are Koihead, my friends, and then there are just koi.

Did you know that your Koi helmet looks exactly like the leadhead from a 1/4-oz. fishing jig? Good for walleyes, small northern pike, and your larger varieties of bass.
The day PBS replaces Jim Lehrer with Mary Hart is the day I finally move to Canada, BTW.
Well, golly, LA, I did not know that. Thanks for the (koi)heads up.
It doesn't surprise me that PBS & NPR are the premiere news sources for the majority of my readers. Gives one hope.
Lorraine, you need to copyright the concept of the "Koihead" right now.
I'm thinking children's books, cartoons, DVDs, toys, etc.
Having said that, I'm now thinking 10% for me.
It does make me look silly, which confirms that I already was. I'm thinking that maybe Sling is the only one who can pull off the non-silly koihead look.
Iwanski, Brilliant. And of course you get a cut.
Au contrare, mon ami JP. I think you look quite as dashing as Walter. You, my dear, are a Koihead with a capital K.
