AKA "Jacket Man"

For as long as I can remember I have had a thing for outerwear, especially jackets. As a FRENCH CONNECTION ad has it: "Man and jacket need not talk. They have understanding." This is a rule that I live by. I have many jackets.
One of the things I love about jackets is all the pockets they are outfitted with. I spend a lot of time allocating every item I take with me, when I go out, to whichever jacket-pocket is best suited for it. If, for example, I happen to place my keys in the wrong pocket, I could be locked out of our home until wifey comes back.
Anyway, I'm a fanatic when it comes to compartmentalization. Everything has its proper place. Why else would God have invented pockets? So when I saw wifey's new hat, I began
You probably wouldn't want to put anything too valuable in there because you don't have to be a skilled pick-pocket to swipe someone's hat and run. So, possibly a few coins, or subway tokens (I'm a former New Yorker). Wifey said she might use it for a shopping list or a fortune (from a cookie). I suppose a smoker could stash an emergency cigarette there. If it's a man's hat, and the man happens to be a playa or a Tiger, he'd probably keep an opportunity condom in there.
Let me know if you come up with some good ideas. Every pocket must have its designated stuff.
