I AM the Trailer Trash Queen...have been for a couple or so years...and I earned the title with shameless lobbying, unfulfilled promises, and a set of 16 ounce 'cups' to enhance my beauty...all you other folks can kiss my ring, if I ever get one...I do have the tiaras, the flashing baton, the tootsie roll pop bouquet, and the silver thingie from the dollar store(still don't have any idea what it is)...envy me...I do...mike

And Mike is also the flamingo king.

A couple of years ago Mike gave me a little rubber flamingo and it has been on our dashboard ever since. He or she (not Mike or Tracy) is all bent up (arthritis I think) and falls over a lot in the summer when she or he doesn't stay crammed between windshield and dashboard. The heat makes him or her fall asleep, maybe.

Naw, Gene, they have to stand on one leg a lot, and why that is I don't know, but it makes them awkward and unstable...hold onto it, though, as the firm we bought over 1600 from ceased production a little over two years ago...I think we're down to about 20...thanks for remembering...m

TB&Greg, just telling it like I see it, and how I think it should be, but I appreciate the comment...m

OOPS!!!forgot to include Sadie...my apologies...m

Hi Mike! I am the "Dollar Store Decor and More" Queen. (facebook)
Hope we can meet someday!

Can you post a picture of your silver thingie from the dollar store?

I might be able to help.

Should we be posting pictures of 'thingies', silver or otherwise?

Being an Airstream forum, one would think the posting of any and all "silver thingies" would be perfectly acceptable.

[ScrapIrony-2]

Have lost my ability(ok, ok, MEMORY) of how to post pics...the 'silver thingie' has about a 3" round base with stems sprouting vertically about 8"s above it...I have also seen them in red ...would make a cheap centerpiece, or, in my case, a pleasing reward...and, yes, I am easily pleased, and, yes, I, too, frequent the dollar stores almost as much as the thrift stores...m

Sounds like a thingie to me.

Ah-ha! Me thinks it must be an appetizer tree. Stick some olives, cheese, or strawberries/melon balls on it and you'll be the hit of the party.

Wow that's a nice thingie!! Are those olives on the end of thingie??

[Fly at Night]

Aye. Olives.

[ScrapIrony-2]

Gee, My silver thingie is not as elaborate, but it came first! Mine would not even to begin to support so much condiment(it can barely support its own verticals)...we are talking cheap, here, but it is a dollar store(might have been 'Nothing over 99 cents"). I DO like the presentation, and if I can get one for a buck, I'll probably get two(or five or so...)...m

Giving it a lot of thought "queen" is not it. I think fiqured it out... "southern belle" instead.

I had a dear friend who used to say "I'm not a southern belle, I'm a western bitch"...and she was, indeed, a dear friend...and I think she was right...m

Hoping to see more pics of the FOD rally for those of us that couldn't make it this time. Still hoping we will be able to organize a rally in the Rockies in the next year...

It sounds like the food and libations were fabulous. (as if I'd expect anything less!)

Pictures, please!
