Great article

Congratulations!

That was a very good write-up. I suspect the wait time for your hats will increase a bit more after this article. I really need to get one of those hat stands ( and a Penman hat to go with it! ).

Good to see you receiving the recognition you deserve. Makes me all the more proud to be a repeat customer.

The way this week's been going, I was afraid I was going to see either an obituary or someones name on an arrest sheet.

I hear that! We had state-wide testing yesterday, at least the essay writing portion of it. Talk about draining. I don't even feel like standing up to teach this week after all the hard hitting lessons and preparations. But, it's hump day and our own Bending Oak is in the paper. Looks like the five day forecast is projecting a nice weekend.

Dave

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2011 8:29 am**

Not here. More storms and possible tornados in our forecast for Saturday into Sunday. Just what we need. This will be the 3rd weekend in a row.

Anyway, great news item, John.

Regards! Michaelson

I was speaking in the metaphoric sense, with beer and barbeque and generally not working, but it does look like our good weather will continue...with blistering highs in the upper 80s/lower 90s...It's technically still winter, ain't it? What I wouldn't give for some seasonal weather!

Dave

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2011 8:38 am**

Come over here.....We have plenty of it...

Ian

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2011 9:56 am**

I love it over in England. I may just take you up on that offer!

Dave

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2011 10:14 am**

Great article!

It's wonderful to see someone doing something creative getting press for a change, instead of the constant barrage of negative "news".

I hope it brings you lots of well-deserved business!

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2011 11:03 am**

Mixed feelings on that, flash. If he gets slammed with orders like Steve Delk did once news was printed about him and his shop, he had to raise his prices to slow down the orders. He is still trying to get his head above water, as he didn't foresee that tsunami of orders until it was too late.

I hope that doesn't occur for John, as notoriaty can definitely be a two edged sword.

Regards! Michaelson

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2011 11:05 am**

Quick! Pull the article before it's too late!

By the way, John; the article has been noticed by another hat-loving community, in case you hadn't been around those parts lately.

I think I know what you are talking about and thanks for the heads up. I don't go over there much.

Posted: **Thu Mar 03, 2011 3:14 pm**

Very nice! I'm on the waiting list, but I can comment on your customer service first hand. Awesome. I really enjoy talking with you and I always learn something new. I'll also post on Facebook.

Posted: **Thu Mar 03, 2011 3:18 pm**

Well, the page wont let me even sign in using FB, but I did sign in with Google. Now it wont let me even open a comment box =(

But, I have a share button and put the whole thing on FB. You guys with an account should do a FB share and spread the word. I'm at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id= ... 1494468109" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
