What hat are you waiting for today?

[tropicalbob]

This is going to be hard to believe, but bear with me. When I took my PB hemp to the Fedex office yesterday the woman behind the counter was on the phone, chatting with a friend in Spanish. It took a few minutes to get her attention, but when I did I pointed to the label on the box and told her I wanted to return it to Texas. She printed off a receipt and said "Sign", so I did. Then I asked her if there wasn't a charge, but she was deep in conversation. So I asked her again, and she said, "No charge" , took the box and went on talking. This morning there was a knock on the door, and there was my box. She mailed it to me.

I just laughed so loud that I scared my student ... so sorry

I hope you are going back there to explain what happened

No, no. This is Miami and you get used to it. I took it to another Fedex place where they were just as rude, but I made sure I saw the label after paying the $20.00. Besides, it's Friday the 13th, and I don't want to spend the night in jail on an assault charge.

Jeez, you would think someone along the way would have looked at the label and realized, "Wait a minute--this is the "from" address."

You would, wouldn't you?

LoL ... I love that story! When I was young, Mad Magazine had a series called "Scenes We'd Like to See". My inner Technicolor shows me an image of 5.000 Marines on the White House lawn - and a conversation from inside the building:
"Marines on the lawn ... What do you mean ...?!??!!! I said send the Marines!"

If you are really looking to get rid of the feathers, then I am interested. Let me know and then I'll PM you. Great looking hat by the way. I have an off white Tonak hat body and I am thinking of turning it into a hat of similar style for myself.

Politically correct is overrated as well. Please do. I need a good laff.

I received a call from Shane at PB Hats this morning who apologized for the confusion, has received my hat, is reworking it today, and sending it back to me by tomorrow at the latest. Decent guy. I really can't wait to see that brown hemp with the dark green ribbon again.

Well, I'm finally awaiting the arrival of a Bluegrass Green Campdraft from Everything Australian. I told myself when they ran their next sale, I was taking the plunge. They did, I did, and the $AUS has even tumbled a bit in the past couple of weeks, making it even better. Just under $100.00 with shipping.

Can't wait...

I can't imagine it being softer than my Fedora, though. Should know in about a week, though (hopefully)!
