Cowboy Vader


We've taken Lord Vader for a half dozen walks around the neighborhood since he pulled this ratty, eBay-purchased helmet out of a box Christmas morning (Santa may have been up till the wee hours trying to make the rest of the costume out of an old laptop bag). At first Lord Vader made me hum the imperial march as we went, but eventually I just downloaded the song to play it on my phone.

Of course there are peppermint swirl candies. Of course there are.


My kids always get a kick out of Meg White's holiday decorations. The Halloween ones were pretty awesome but Christmas is even better. Of course, it still can't compete with the Snow Duggars.

Feral Frank


The only thing I don't like about this abandoned Frank Lloyd Wright usonian house is that it's not in Detroit. Of course, if it was in Detroit it wouldn't have any of its original furniture. Or copper plumbing. 


[Bravo to the guys who did restore the Turkel House in Detroit, saved from a fate like that of the Wynant House in Gary, Indiana]
