Isn’t the sensible action for the 60-year old female employee to simply have her name legally changed to **DanBlather** , and use the ticket as issued?

Ooh, email me, too, DanBlather. Not that I’m fishing for a discount, but next time I’m in Portland visiting the in-laws, it would be fun to check out a new (to me) yarn store!

An aside, but every day I drive past the “Village Yarn and Tea Shop” in Seattle, it has always amused me at the strange mix of specialties, and someone thought to merge them into a business. Hmmm…so we have all of these delightful select teas from all over the world…this business just needs something extra…why, yarn of course! 🙂

Wow, remind me not to fly them. Next thing you know they’ll be putting scorpions on their planes or something.
