I thought i'd just share this.

I wrote to Coffin Case (the CEO--Jonny) asking for a sticker for my guitar. I told the head about how I was relearning to play because of my dad, so I was wondering if I could have just one sticker for my coffin case.

I got an envelope in the mail with eight stickers, 1 promo cd from Death Pilot, 1 full length cd from Evergreen Terrace, some advertisement cards, and a membership card.

I just thought that was really nice of them. I'm writing a thank you email after this. Little niceties go a long way. Thank you. :D

Its always great to hear about gestures of kindness. They do happen alot out there, but they dont always get to be heard like the bad stories.

Another very good and generous company is Subaru of America. Every year for the past few years, they have sent me foldable paper binoculars, Subaru Rally team stickers and trading cards, bumper stickers, some nice Rally posters, and one year, a couple of hats. 2 years ago, I got this big box from them that contained around 100 binoculars and 50 packs of cards...I've used these for our annual Relay for Life Fundraiser (American Cancer Society), and that year raised almost $400 form my students. My school over the last 4 years has raised approximately $40-45,000 for cancer research.

That is awesome. I just ordered a set of Coffin's Masuimi Max picks. I feel good about supporting them now.
