Received just the other day, thought I was going to blow coffee. Here's how it starts:
"Earlier this year, I sent a notification email to you recognizing that Twisted Oak Winery, LLC had been selected for the 2008 Best of Vallecito Award in the Wineries category by the U.S. Local Business Association (USLBA)."
Didn't see the earlier email - perhaps lost in the clutter or my spam blocker actually did the right thing. Anyway, it continues...
"In recognition of your achievement, a 2008 Best of Vallecito Award plaque has been designed for display at your place of business. You may arrange to have your award sent directly to Twisted Oak Winery, LLC by following the simple steps on the 2008 Best of Vallecito Award order form. Simply copy and paste this link into your browser to access the order form..."
Now I need to explain. Twisted Oak Winery is located in the picturesque little town of Vallecito, located between the much larger picturesque towns of Murphys and Angels Camp. Right away that should tell you something - Vallecito has a bit over 300 folks in it - heck, I think half of them are from the same family!
It's going to give me great enjoyment to lord this Major Award over the entire Vallecito business community. Russ Irish of Irish Vineyards, I'm talking to you. Just you!

Congratulations?

It's well-deserved, I'm sure.
Hope they give you a bottle of Skulls, along with the plaque! That would make it worth it.
