Request for anyone in CDG/Paris

I was in Paris on the 11th, and my only gift to myself was a baseball cap from the Planet Hollywood on the Champs Elysees. So, today while volunteering at the museum, my hat was stolen from me.

So my request is this: If anyone's in CDG and would like to pick up this hat for me, I would gladly reimburse them and send them Carol's Cookies too. Or something along that lines.

Email me for more info. You have no idea how unhappy having my sole gift to myself being nixed was...

DG

Will do gladly. How urgent is this?? I'm in Paris 2/13-18 and then again 3/5-26. The second trip would be easier timewise, but the first is possible, if you need it fast.

I might be in CDG sometime between the 15-23 of March. Let me get back to you if someone else isn't there sooner.

I appreciate your help.

A whole herd of us will be in Paris President's Day weekend. Someone will be strolling the Champs Elysee and pick up your hat. You sound really disgruntled. Check your email and get me an address.

Email me if you do.

Went to the Montparnasse Hard Rock today. Their visa terminal was down and they were out of yellowish hats. However, since I figured you had already gotten one hat from Sparks_flying by now, the salesgirl and I flipped to see which of the popular colors it would be. Black won. Hope you are ok with this. I'm flying home tomorrow, so I can get it out to you a day or two later.

Nick -

The Hard Rock was a mere three blocks fron my hotel on Blvd Haussmann and I would have been glad to pick it up. And you would have received it by hand instead of it being mailed to you.

Make sure you do something VERY NICE for Judith. She's a wonderful woman and a very gracious host! (She'll know next time I visit the secret to making me happy - BREAD!!)

I sent out Ms. Parks Carol's Cookies. Carol's cookies will go to whomever helps me out. I don't forget.

I am confused, didn't Disgruntled lose his Planet Hollywood cap? Why is everybody getting him a Hard Rock Caf's?

Sorry I missed this thread earlier, would have been more than happy to pick you up one while staying at the Marriot two weeks ago.

Hard Rock, Planet Hollywood. What's the friggin difference, anyways? Overpriced food, overinflated egos and over-the-hill celebraties.

So you're telling me Sylvester Stallone *isn't* at the top of his career?
