Buckles can you show us a closer picture of your new ring hook and also lets see some closer pictures of your circus models as they look great.
The circus model builders would also probably like to see them.

Wow Katie has sure grown

up before our eyes pal

When I saw her last week

at Sonny's she startled

me (& so did Jamie)

That clear polycarbonate

& chrome custom hook was

intended for Dalilah but

somehow it was glommed

by the Royal Empress &

now it fits very nicely

in this princesses hand

(I just want Dalilah to

know it was meant for her)

Polycarbonate is a versatile

incredibly tough plastic

It is used in everything

from bulletproof windows

to bull hooks

DEAR CHIC, I DON'T KNOW WHY THE COMMENTS DIDN'T COME THROUGH WITH THE PICTURE WHEN SHANNON SENT IT. BUT IF YOU COULD SEE THE PICTURE ON FACE BOOK. YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN THAT YOU DID GIVE THE BEAUTIFUL BULL HOOK TO DELILAH. AND I SAID THAT. I ALSO SAID SHE WAS TOO YOUNG AT THE TIME. BUT THAT SHE CAN HAVE IT ANY TIME SHE WANTS IT. IN FACT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IT TODAY. AND I ONLY USED IT ONCE, THEN PUT IT AWAY FOR HER. I WOULD NOT TAKE ANYTHING THAT IMPORTANT AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER. YOU MISJUDGE ME. ( It is a work of art. ) FOR YEARS I KEPT IT IN THE BANK BOX.......Barbara........

After I took the pictures of Katie with " DELILAH"s " bullhook, it dawned on me that someone might like a closer look at Buckles miniature circus wagons. I do know that Jim Elliott gave him one of them. I think that was the first time I met Jim. I might be wrong about the meeting. I do promise to take the photos of the wagons. Must get Buckles back on his feet first. Oh yes, we had to rush Buckles to the Hosp. yesterday. Spent four miserable hours there. It turns out he has a large kidney stone. The good news is we can treat it with medicine and LOTS of WATER. At least no surgery for now. I know you all will be pulling for him. I am looking forward to his story on his stay in the Hosp. ( He was not a good patient. )........Barbara........

Ouch! I wouldn't wish a kidney stone on an enemy. Painful stuff. Do drink lot's of water. It will help speed up the process.

First of all my sincere

sympathy for Buckles as

the worst day in my life

so far was when I awoke

1 night years ago with a

KIDNEY STONE (hoo boy)

Sure hope he is out of

the woods so to speak

Chic Silber said...


2nd of all is my chagrin

for as long as I've known

your family I was sure

that her name is spelled

DALILAH (not Delilah)

My apologies to her

Chic Silber said...


3rd of all is my silly

snarky comment about

my giving that little

(very pretty) hook to

Buckles long ago for

your daughter He very

likely didn't hear me

Barbara you must know

by now that I would

never give you grief

I'm just very glad to

see the hook in very

good hands

Chic Silber said...


Lastly but not least

to Cindy about my many

websites that were all

created either by real

spiders or as testings

of my cobweb machines

that we used to make

as an effect machine

I still have plenty of

them on a shelf here

Sorry Cindy

Chic Silber said...


Boy oh boy am I relieved

to learn that it was only

Barbara's typo & not my

memory that failed the

spelling test of DALILAH

so I rescind my apology

Chic Silber said...


By the way Cindy if you

would like a cobweb machine

you don't need to pay for it

just come on down & get it

Please bring a big truck or

at least a trailer as there

is plenty of trash & treasure

to take with you
