Well here it is- the story about the buckle. My DH (Bubba) teases my friend Nat without mercy about her 'hay burners' (horses) and the money she spends on sorting events. He keeps asking her if she won a buckle. And so far, the answer is 'not yet'. He offers to get her a buckle if she'll give him the money. Well, Nat's birthday is tomorrow and Bill has made this buckle for her. Is it not the tackiest thing ever? I love it.
It is a hub cab form a retired Police car- a Crown Vic, and is courtesy of Bubba's evil friend, Denis who owns a body shop. The center is cut from a metal serving tray using a scalloped punch, and has blingy letters applied. The pink flowers are wedding decorations from Michael's, the the beads and Austrian Crystals are also from there. Right now Bubba is working on the camoflage belt so Nat can show this thing off tomorrow. He kills me!
Nat- wishing you a Happy Birthday, and when you blow out your candles- wish for new friends! Love you!

I knew I had better check back and get in another word.
I probably need one made for the top of my head for protection when you all hit me over the head to shut me up.
I think Pat reads SCS comments to Bubba. You might have to pay her extra to leave out the comment about him.
You missed the great picture (which disappeared) that she posted of Nat wearing the buckle with Bubba smiling proudly of his invention with Pat's stamping on it.

Well, well, well- Let's see...Where do I start? I am loving the war on words here, and so is Bubba. He is quite proud of his first creation. OK, Cindy- it's too late to cut Bubba out of the deal. People talk, you know. And besides, we need him to keep our supply going. We will use his ingenuity and brawn.
I really like the 'belly fat' concealer twist you put on this! (Like Nat needs it!) But for fully formed women I think it is great. We could have one of those late night commercials- 'For only $19.99 you not only get THE INCREDIBLE BELLY FAT CONCEALER BUCKLE, normally a $1,047.17 value, but if you order in the next 30 mins, you will also receive- at no cost, a bucket of pork rinds. You only need to pay the $4.99 shipping and handling cost'. Order now- THE INCREDIBLE BELLY FAT CONCEALER is available in limited quantities, only 5 to a household. Call NOW!
Now for Christina. OK sister, you really started something with the BUTT BUCKLE! LOL! I sure could use one o' them 'thangs'. Trouble is, I'd have to find two VW bugs to get my fit right! (Quit laughing already Shirley!) It's not really the cost of the VW's here. Can you imagine what the bling cost would be? I think I'll let it go. Besides, a full 'booty' means you always have a comfy spot to sit- anywhere!
Thanks for the laughs girls. I'm dieing to see who gets the last word now!

Well, don't forget my head gear, Ok? You could throw that in free for the lst 100 calls in the next five minutes. Bubba may have to quit his regular job to keep up with the demand.

Well, I read your comments last night but opted not to comment until Goofy Girl Shirley did...so I could have the last word.
I love your....it slices, it dices, approach to our marketing strategy. We just have to work out the details with Bubba....soften him up a bit Pat.....tell him how much you love your imaginary friends and that they all so struggle with paying for their terrible addictions. I think we can still make it work. QVC? A possibility for sure!
