I agree with Lisa on bufty. I think I’ll make up my own definition and use it in the next day or two. It will be my own personal joke – and yours as well.

I’ve got several Chinese finger cuffs rolling around in our junk/candy drawer right now. We had them on the table at my daughter’s bday party. They used to freak me out when I was really little because I’d panic and couldn’t get my fingers out. I grew up in South Texa and they always had those at Mexican restraunts and in pinatas.

And ditto Lisa on bufty. The mystery adds to the fun of it.

My words are here.
