It’s Thursday. This is a seasonal favorite of mine. Horatio Sanz, Jimmy Fallon, Chris Kattan, and Tracy Morgan join forces to bring us the gloriously offbeat holiday gem “I Wish It Was Christmas Today.” It’s goofy, it’s chaotic, and it probably shouldn’t work—but somehow they spin a two-minute throwaway sketch into something that feels like an accidental, oddly heartwarming Christmas card.

It’s Wednesday. This Grinch has got some downright wicked moves—like, who knew Whoville’s crankiest resident could throw down like that? One minute he’s plotting holiday chaos, the next he’s hitting dance steps sharp enough to make Fred Astaire envious.

It’s Tuesday. As if we didn’t already have enough of the horrid white stuff, Mother Nature decided to dump a couple more inches on us yesterday—just in case we forgot what a bitch she truly can be. The good news? Aside from a few flurries tomorrow, the forecast looks blessedly dry until at least the middle of next week. That’s a win in my book.

Anyway, it’s officially that time of year again: time to set up my Christmas Car Tree! Many years ago I started receiving Corvette ornaments from family and friends. At first I just hung them on our Christmas tree, but over the years a few ornaments became many, and it became obvious they needed a tree of their own. Also at some point along the way, my collection expanded beyond Corvettes, to include iconic cars from TV and film.

This year’s new recruits are pretty sweet: the 1976 “Bumblebee” Camaro from Transformers, the Ghostbusters’ ECTO-1, and a 1963 Z06 Corvette. You can check them out in the photo featured today. Once I get the whole thing assembled, I’ll post a photo of the fully decked-out tree—now 45 ornaments strong and still growing!
