New Year, New Hat

Post by Serial Hero »

So, today is my first day back in the office after a nice four day weekend. I just sat down to eat lunch, here at my desk, about fifteen minutes ago, and the front desk paged me that a delivery had come in (they always come when I'm at lunch). I walked up front, thinking great, what now? Sitting on the counter was that beautiful white box we've all come to know and love. I grabbed a pair of scissors and opened it right there. It brought a little tear to my eye. The pictures posted on COW just do not do the AB justice. It’s something that must be experienced in person.

A big thank you to Fedora. The fit and look are perfect right out of the box. You surpassed all my expectations (and bereave me, as much as the AB is talked up here, they were high).

Thanks again,
-SH-

Congratulations about the hat! But I am sorry to hear that you were "bereaved!" :wink: :lol: You have my sympathies.

Anyway, OK, I'll be the first one to say, Post Pics!!!

Congrats. :D

A big thank you to Fedora.
You are most welcomed. I love making these hats so what you see is my passion, my compulsion. My sickness. But, I am at home here as there are some worse off than me!! :D


and bereave me, as much as the AB is talked up here
Agent should get a kick out of the "bereave" used in the same sentence as AB. :P :D

regards, Fedora

I remember my supervisor going into a fit laughing very, very hard while writing employee performance reviews...seems the spellchecker he was using had decided to replace one employee's last name with 'Dunghills'. Hmm...probably not going to be a very good review... ;)

Certain dialects and writing styles allow for the dropping of the 'to'. The Bible is a good example... ;) ...when you get done grammar-checking it, let me know.
