I want to once again remark upon the super kind and generous folks here at Antique-Bottles.net! I was going to do a quiet thank you here and there, for these latest deeds, but let's face, In these times,...even the cops aren't allowing the 5mph 'cushion' that once was....My point being, that even in these toughest of times, the people on here come through with unexpected kindness and generosity. I have to go back a few weeks to properly begin thanking folks.... I will go in cronological order here as these things occured. Let's start with forum member Tim,...(Wangan) He had expressed some interest in a maple syrup bottle that I had posted, and since I wasn't displaying nor collecting these, I sent it to him for shipping,....Well it's sometimes simpler for me to just call it good and see what it comes to when it gets there....So lets just say when Tim sent shipping, he went way above what most folks would expect with some extra cash, and that stayed with me.[
] Thank you Tim! Also, we've all been surfing around the forum when the little p.m. notice appears,...right? One evening I get a p.m. from John, (Oldihtractor) asking me for a mailing address, because he'd noticed I subcollect blueing bottles and he had some for me! Well okay...Great!...They came today,...A big thank you John....very cool to get some bottles in the mail. Then there's Gary (Mainer1) who happens to dig in a spot where my wonderful wife used to call home, Portsmouth N.H. She has a lot of sentimental attachment to the place, and Gary took it upon himself to send her two nice local druggists from there. Thank you very much Gary! A nice gesture indeed. And then there's our venerable Jason (SWIZZLE!) Hey now this one's just over the top! Swiz sent Laur a ladies leg Whiskey he had dug recently as a kindness,.....Very cool and nice of him....Well,...Laur asked me to open the package and there's TWO bottles,....Hers, and Swiz decided to send me a bottle that he knew from reading the posts, that I've wanted for a long time,....as a surprise....A Moxie nerve food blob top! For whatever reason I've just never had one. Well I do now and it's a beaut. Thank you so vr. much Swiz! I was (and still am) floored. Last but not least, Mike (mdavenport) needed a Wyeth dose cup,....we dug a few at the drugstore dig, so I sent him one,....When he covered the shipping, he too went above and beyond with some cash and a nice note!....Well,...what do you say to all these wondeful acts of kindness? A simple thank you to everybody who has brightened things up for another. This place really is a head and shoulders above anywhere else.
