Alex and staff believe there is a degree of merit in your proposal. Considerations will be initiated for the 2014 Fall line of products. Naturally you will be compensated for you astute market possibility awareness. Your suggestion will be forwarded to the leaf “branch” of our firm.
.
Thank you so much for your consideration of my aforementioned proposal of Bungy-Jumping as a seasonal alternative or addition to your current marketing endeavor. It is however, my sincerest hope that, like so many other of my attempts, it does not get buried in a “trunk” in some god-forsaken warehouse in Hoboken, N.J. 08014(?)
Yours truly,
Yadayadayada..
P.S. A patent is pending and will be available for sale at a firm “Hoffa-million” dollars.
Sincerely,
I think Alex and staff is developing a line of tree blankets when the snows begin. Now would be a good time to get in on the ground floor to invest as Alex seems to have cornered the Forest Fashion & Garment market.

They must have uniforms, too. Supply them. It’s lucrative. Include light reflecting green colour.

The sad part is the leaves will land safely..then some rowdy kid will jump into the pile and bust them all up 🙂
