Among the 10,000 Christmas ornaments in my house are several pieces from Star Wars. Millenium Falcons and X-Wing fighters and even a couple of Darth Vaders. I got into a scuffle with my sister-in-law, whose only allowable ornaments are hand-crafted by someone she knows personally. She said:

"Christmas is about being with the people you love!"

I couldn't do it. Not even for 40% off. The Emperor does not belong on the Christmas tree.

I must be going soft or something.
