It’s an honor to wear that hat! You and Niles would have been proud of me working those birds.

Two things I have to say.

First of all, Mike's belt is an EIGTH degree blackbelt, so he's had that thing a while. Congratulations Mike, that's an achievement few on planet Earth could accomplish.

Second, I am glad it comes in a clear wrapper. What are we going to do, keep "hiding" behind the fear of being persecuted or ridiculed? Trust me, Big Brother knows all about you anyways and where you are all the time. And what you own. I'm proud of what I support and not going to hide it.

In my office here in NYS I'm supposed to post a sign saying whether I allow or don't allow concealed carry. I'm guessing 95% of businesses do NOT post a sign. If I'm forced to, guess what? The ones who don't like that my patients carry can go elsewhere. And I will NOT support any local restaurant or business that does not allow CC. That's why I won't go to hockey games or baseball games here. I hate nothing more than a hypocrite.

Randy's post is a bit contradictory. "AH with checkering around the fleur like a AA" Then "Do not recall seeing a AA with checkering around the fleur." Maybe Randy will clarify.

Note the top picture of an AAH as taken from the grades section and how the checkering outline wraps around the fleur, then note the bottom pic of an AH and how the checkering outline does "not" wrap around the fleur.

What I said was:
We have seen at least one AH with the checkering around the fleur in the same fashion as an AAH
AND
but I do not ever recall seeing an AAH with checkering around the fleur, or lack of such as the one you have referenced. It is more consistent with an A or B as you previously noted.

Maybe more simply stated I have seen an AH with the more elaborate pattern but never an AAH with the simpler pattern seen on A and B grades.

True Edgar… However, there are Parkers suspected of being upgrades who’s serial numbers fall within the range of thise contained within the pages of some of the missing books. I will refrain from naming names of those in who’s posession sone of the missing books might be found.
