Oh thank God! It’s a Christmas miracle. Merry Christmas everyone.

ooh! ooh! Lionel trains, plus plenty of track! And those metal gas stations for your metal cars… sigh!

I wonder why they call him Winky?

Shop class was always dangerous place.

Maybe Lawn Darts are back….?

It’s not often you see a half-Santa.

You know Screwdriver, Nailgun, Crowbar, and, uh, Jigsaw, but do you recall the most famous elf of all?

That’d be Mitch. He had three legs. And was the last elf who could make it snow.

Rocko: Oh, I’d love for it to snow!

Yeah, well, we lost him in a blizzard.

Yay! Spiked lawn darts!

You’ll shoot your eye out!

It was because cheap metal and wood toys stopped being cheap. I remember it clearly.

So, first the OSHA lecture on safety glasses and the importance of steel toed elf shoes. The bells provide a warning someone is approaching. BTW-Keep the Elf ears tucked in so they don’t get caught in the machinery.

Be careful not to poke your eye out.

Gotta love the candy cane tat!! Lol!!
