yaklady Report post Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) Hear that, Clay, you're just a pufter. Isn't that a short, fat, black and white bird that lives in Iceland? Or maybe it's a goofy looking fish that puffs up when you come near. It could be a steam train chugging up a hill. Perhaps it's something you dust your house with. Actually, I thinks that's how to describe Sheena last night when she was about to throw up! Or is it yak? Ralph? Up-chuck? You get the picture. I really don't know if you're a pufter or not, but you ARE older than dirt. You'll be twice as old as me if you keep this up. Want me to send up an oxygen tank so you can blow out the candles on your massive cake? You know I would pick on you so relentlessly if I didn't love you! Happy birthday! Kathy Are you sleeping in today, or what? Edited February 22, 2009 by yaklady Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildrose Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Heck, if you're really not 50 yet, you're young in this "industry"...I was finding myself to be one of the youngest for quite a while at shows, and I'm 41 now! Happy birthday no matter the age! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbird Report post Posted February 23, 2009 so Holly I will be 22 in a few weeks that's pretty young for this industry LOL right And ok so I over did it Clay you not that old I guess Josh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClayB Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Thank you all for the happy wishes and kind words, and even for some of the not so kind words You know I'm gonna get you back, right Kathy? But I'll take any one of your definitions of "pufter" over the one I got from Google. Kate, I think you and I need to have a little talk. I sure hope that word has a different definition in your dictionary Billy, I'm not slacking, I promise! I've been working on something different for quite a while now. I actually started it several years ago, and decided I better try and finish it before I get too old and forgetful. This project involves a lot of hair, but it isn't a picture, and required way to much thinking along with a lot of construction which isn't my favorite thing, and a couple re-do's. Hopefully I'll have it finished in a couple more weeks. Not a lot of packages Tina, but Stacy got me a really cool purple swivel knife!!!!! Thanks again all of you for helping make my birthday special! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pabloz Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Happy birthday Clay. THANK YOU for all you do here at LW and for being a great craftsman that helps to inspire the rest of us. May you have many, many more wonderful years. Pabloz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CitizenKate Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Hmmn... not quite what I intended to say. Where I grew up, we referred to youngsters as pufters. Sorry if I offended anyone. Kate I have a feeling this is going to be a real shock to ClayB's wife! (check out the Urban Dictionary, Kate!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClayB Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Sure Kate, try and talk your way out of it now I'm used to abuse, look what I have to put up with from Kathy!!!! Really, no offense was taken (from you, from Kathy, well.......) It's kind of funny how nothing seems to mean what you think anymore. We have a friend that comes here hunting every fall. He's a farmer and in the winter he measures grain bins for the government. So, he tells everyone he's a bin climber. Google bin climber and see what you come up with. So go ahead and call me whatever you want, and I'll assume you mean it affectionately Thanks Tom and Paul too. I think maybe I should have birthdays more often, I feel so special And if I had them twice a year for a few years, I might even catch up with Kathy!!
