How about a little love, peeps? Claire and I think the tree we got this year is our best yet, and the decorating of it is complete. This year The Bride has a new little friend…

Bride and friend #1 

That's Tom Servo, you see…

The tree is so super-nice that even unlit it lights up the room…

And Claire really went to town with the hand-crafted ornamentation this year…

Hope your tree-trimming is going as swimmingly. If you are in fact trimming. A tree.

    I’m always filled with love. Always. Merry Christmas, Glenn.

    Also, that’s a very lovely tree you have there.

  • Glenn Kenny says:

    Thanks. It’s from our local hardware/gardening store around the block. For the last few years we thought they’d be too expensive, and went to the independent seasonal parking lot vendors instead. Turns out Mazzone’s not only has the super-nicest trees, but they are cheaper than the ones sold in the lots. Reminds me of the Empire Carpet commercial, somehow…

    Awww…Tom Servo.

  • bill says:

    I’m more of a Crow guy, myself, but I can certainly see Tom’s appeal.

    I’d give two limbs (minimum) for a Tom Servo ornament that played his mental breakdown from the episode where he convinces himself that some Japanese sci-fi flick (PRINCE OF SPACE?) is actually the MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS.

    I thought the Bride was some kind of plush female Buddha at first glance. Very cozy setup, anyway.
    I have that exact same Servo figurine, BTW.

    Glenn…your tree is as unique as you are. I love the way you write. Tom Coughlin, (another William Paterson College Beaconer from the early 1980’s) and I were speaking of you the other day. Merry Christmas to you and your wife, et al.
