The white flag of surrender has a new meaning for me now. I had to laugh the other day when I received an order over my website www.seattleflagmakers.com. My customer ordered one of our wine glass flags on a burgundy background but the order did not process through PayPal. An hour later the same customer ordered another wine glass flag; this time the one on a white background. When this sort of thing happens I always send a follow-up email asking to confirm the latest order and also to let my customer know they won't be double charged. Shortly after my email I got a reply thanking me for checking back and yes, she wanted the wine glass flag on the white background because after giving it thought this one was perfect: it was an "I surrender", it's time for a glass of wine and perfect to indicate a house party. I've always preferred the wine glass on a white background and now I am further convinced as to why. After a long day I'm more than willing "to surrender!"
