You have been my stalwart companion since you came and I want you to know how much I love you.

Happy Birthday Buddy!! Wow, this is a real shindig! A great party with the best food I've seen in awhile. Shoko look...Black Cat whiskey. I'll have one of those. No, you won't Tyebe, you're too young. How about a Big Cat Malt Liquor, Shoks? No way....You can have a snapple though...you like mango, Tyebs. Thank you for the nanner Buddy. Your name sake, Budd, chewed one end of ours and is suckin' the nip out. It's really gross! Your favourite Budd....FOOD of every kind and all are delicious. Let's dig in Tyebe and Budd and make sure you get a slice of Buddy's birthday cake. Thanks so much for this wonderful party. Let's play some games. How about pin the tail on Einey....mol
