"I just couldn’t get anything done.  I’d roll out of bed every afternoon at like, I don’t know…2:30? 3:00?  I was too uninspired to get up.  I couldn’t eat, and I certainly couldn’t paint.  All the ideas, they were just…stuck.  I’d put my paintbrush to the canvas and just stand there, paralyzed, for like an hour.  Then, someone bought me a Danielson Necklace T-Shirt, and it was like the fog started lifting.  Not all at once, but real gradual.  Now I’m up every morning at 6:30 and painting by 7:00 AM!  I’ve never had three weeks in a row where I’ve worked so consistently!  I even got a call to do a gallery show next month.  Thanks, Danielson Necklace T-Shirt!"

"My name is Sadie Scrapin, and I’m a reckless driver.  I’ve been driving recklessly for fourteen years.  I didn’t realize that a fender-bender every other month was unusual…not until recently.  I realize the scope of my problem now.  Once the enormity of all those accidents set in (no one was ever hurt–just a lot of crunched car doors and smashed taillights), I felt the need to make amends.   But how?  How can a person track down every single person that they’ve ever crashed into?  So, I decided to take Danielson’s advice and say my apologies creatively through the ‘Did I Step On Your Trumpet’ apology campaign.  Because of the fact that this logo is on a shirt, I can wear my apology, so that whenever anyone that I’ve crashed into, or that I’m GOING to crash into, sees me, the apology is there.  I’ve actually got seven of these shirts: one for each day of the week…just to be safe.  I’ve learned my lesson."

"I love my family.  They’re wonderful.  They really are, but they…we…are not morning people.  The kids are grumpy, my wife is grumpy, I’m grumpy, even our pet rabbit is grumpy.  Compelled by the conviction that there MUST be a different way to start off the morning, I started doing research as to what might help.  I started reading psychology journals, books, going to support groups, anything.  Nothing seemed to be helping.  Then one morning on my way in to work I noticed the happiest, most carefree person strolling down the street.  They were smiling.  They were whistling.  What do they have that I don’t, I thought.  That’s when I noticed they were wearing a Danielson Hartz shirt.  That’s it!  I thought!  That’s the answer!  I bought five, one for each of us with the women’s extra-small for the rabbit.  The package with the shirts arrived in the mail, and that night we all wore them to bed.  The next morning was like the dawning of a new era.  "Honey, can I make you some coffee?"  "Hey sis, how’d you sleep last  night? Well, I hope!"  "What a beautiful morning!"  "Man, I love school!  I can’t wait to take my science test!"  All I can say is thank you.  Thank you, Danielson for making Danielson Hartz T-Shirts.  They’ve made all the difference."

Have you offended someone? Need to mend a botched relationship? Having trouble saying sorry?

Well, we can help!

In celebration of the debut of Danielson’s “Did I Step On Your Trumpet” and the anticipation of the “Ships” project, the folks here at Sounds Familyre / Danielson headquarters are offering the world a new way to say “I’m sorry.”

Here’s how it works:

1. You write a personalized note on a 3 x 5 card to the person you’ve offended. Please begin with “I’m sorry, did I step on your trumpet?”
2. Place the card into an unsealed envelope, with the appropriate postage and addressed to the person you may have offended.
3. Place that envelope into another envelope addressed to:
   
   Did I Step on Your Trumpet?
   c/o Sounds Familyre
   P.O. Box 225
   Clarksboro, NJ 08020
4. Mail it to us.

Upon receipt, we’ll place one of our “Did I Step on Your Trumpet” buttons (lovingly handicrafted by Daniel Smith) into the envelope and forward it to the person whose trumpet was stepped upon.

If you don’t have any current “ships” to mend, but would like a button so you are prepared next time you step on a trumpet, please feel free to send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to the address above.

You can also post a public apology as a comment at Danielson HQ, and email your friend a link to view the apology and hear the song!

Regardless of how you choose to apologize, we’re sure that it won’t be long until you hear from your friend forgiving you and saying “thank you, for our ship has been mended.”
