Christmas in Springfield

Here's a little video that Thanos and I made in 1987.

It's kind of like A Christmas Carol, but not.

I put the easy-to-view low-res video here on the blog, but those of you with nice big computers and Quicktime plug-ins can go watch the nicer-quality video here.

Ms Jacobs just rocks. So do you, Marie. Great video.

At about 4:10 into this, we see a large model of the cargo ship from Space: 1999. I would have loved to hear Elizabeth Jacobs' reason for including that particualr item in her Christmas display along with Jesus and Santa!

She said "The boys love that." But I couldn't fit it into the video, already at over 5 minutes. She also talked a lot about her religion and the missions her church has overseas.

This is lovely - I began to cringe when you arrived at the house, thinking, "oh, please don't be snotty; please don't sneer," but the rest was just well judged, or edited, and balanced between humor and affection, or respect - all good. And here is my first message, as promised. Thanks for coming out with us last night - it was too short. You looked great and seemed really well.
