    It’s a bouquet, spelled B-U-C-K-E-T, and it was made for royalty. If interested, please call me on my pearl-white slim-line push-button digital telephone with automatic last-number redial.

      I love you for that Keeping Up Appearances reference, Dave. Is the Ferret Tribe fans?
      Interestingly, or maybe not, there is a local business called the Candy Bouquet. In honor of Hyacinth, I always think of it as the Candy Bucket.

    But I want a bucket from 186,655 years in the future! He’s obviously having a hard time with his translation engine (who knows what they speak that far forward). And it’s made for future royalty!

    It’s the bucket of my dreams!

    I want to know where Serious went. Maybe he/she’s in 186,655 also. I also want to know why he/she put bucket in statement. It won’t fit. It doesn’t have the right letters. If it’s a puzzle, then it’s way to early in the morning for me.

        Well, I suppose if the doctor brings you one with a sheet of paper with numbers on it that you can fill in, that’s probably not a positive statement.

    Why can’t Sparky just keep his box wine decorated champagne in the fridge like a normal person?

    And how exactly does one decorate champagne? I bet it involves glitter.

      I’m just bummed I have no way of getting in touch with Sparky. They apparently have different ways of communicating in the future. They want me to put bucket in statement but they leave no email. They want me to envision this lovely ice holder, but provide no picture. The future is going to be very confusing.

      I’m gobsmacked however that these sort of buckets will still be in demand. I’m positive ice will be extinct.

        Edible gold leaf … and yes, I did have to answer that question when I gave my mother a mini of that one year as a stocking stuffer.

        After visiting her several times and discovering that she still hasn’t drunk it and instead periodically shakes it up to see the sparkles (not to be confused with Sparklebits), I’ve concluded that edible gold leaf in alcoholic beverages is a consumable adult version of a snow globe.

          For being so fancy and glittery, Gold Schlager tastes like distilled rhinoceros urine.

          Not that I’m a connoisseur of fine distilled spirits made from mammal urine or anything… though I have made my way through a bottle of Phillips Gin.

    I love anything silver:

    Slowly, silently, now the moon
    Walks the night in her silver shoon;
    This way, and that, she peers, and sees
    Silver fruit upon silver trees;
    One by one the casements catch
    Her beams beneath the silvery thatch;
    Couched in his kennel, like a log,
    With paws of silver sleeps the dog;
    From their shadowy cote the white breasts peep
    Of doves in a silver-feathered sleep;
    A harvest mouse goes scampering by,
    With silver claws and a silver eye;
    And moveless fish in the water gleam,
    By silver reeds in a silver stream.

    Holy cats, it’s a bucket from 16,855 years in the future! Bucket.

    Think it is catulator time: Cats has gots 9 lives. Divide 16,855 by nine and you get 1,872.77* cats. Input the number of years Moses and crew wandered in the desert and divide. Answer is 46.819. Multiply by Corned Beef Brisket (or pastrami, depending on preference) and serve on rye with a dill pickle on the side. Contact Sparky and tell him/her you will trade a slightly used bottle of Manishevitz Concord Wine for the bucket.

    *Your answer may vary depending on how you slice your cat.
