oatka 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2007 So, a few minutes ago my wife calls me at work and says something as confusing as "what would you say if someone called you saying that something you wanted was delivered and they wanted to open it and see it before you got home?" I said "is it from Ohio?" (I think that's where Hatches Headquarters is) She said "I'm not sure, but it says Hatches on it and I reeeeeaaaallly want to open it." so, after teasing her for a few minutes I told her she could only open it if she first locked the kids up, washed her hands, gently opened the envelope with a sharp knife, laid a soft blanket on the table, and then gently placed the magazine on it to carefully look through it. no word back yet if she followed the instructions and has started to look. of course, she probably has and that's why she didn't call back yet. Crap!!! I forgot to tell her to wear gloves when turning the pages!!! :wallbash: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea mine showed up with the back cover torn and folded. What do the guys at the post office do with it?? Play Frisbee with it?? By the way with any Mag. I have to store it away or my girlfriend will use as a coaster...She's just doesn't understand fine art!! BIG UPPS TO HATCHES CREW AGAIN!! :thumbup: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oatka 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2007 Even though the post office didn't realize what the were handling, i was glad to see that the Hatches gang thought enough of it to put it in an envelope to help it have a safer trip! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twofingerz 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2007 OATKA OMG i cant believe you got yours already. Last time we PMed you hadnt even ordered yet. Damn mailman must have stolen mine. Now i am coming to your house and steal yours!! I gotta check my email when i get home and see when i got my "order has been sent" message. Fair warning- you better put that in the safe overnight because i am coming after it.. most likely I typoed my address. that would be something I would do.
