Have yourself, a very Trekkie Christmas....

So I went to Big Lots with my mom last week, which parenthetically, is its own special kind of hell, and they were having a clearance on Star Trek figures. I was standing there, looking at them, and suddenly I got this vision of Christmas which could only be realized with a glue gun and a handful of Vicodin. Fortunately, I had both.

Initially, I had thought about making a Star Trek nativity, but I couldn’t find Uhura. Then I remembered these Christmas dioramas I had seen on hat boxes, and I thought I might be on to something. Or at least on something. And it turns out I was.

I made two, and posted pictures on Facebook. I couldn’t believe the response. People really seem to like them, and in fact, offered to buy them. So it is true; people really will buy anything.

I decided to offer these up for sale, with the proceeds benefiting Project Angel Food; a fantastic organization in Los Angeles that provides lovingly prepared meals to men, women and children who are homebound and living with AIDS.

I guarantee Christmas delivery (but only in the U.S.).

It’s too late for Ebay, so we’ll do this by email bids. If you want one or the other, send me an email with whatever you think they’re worth, and I’ll go with the highest bidder. Bids are due tomorrow, December 17th at midnight PDT. I will overnight them to you on Monday.

KIRK’S DRUNK
