"i'll always remember the christmas that i begged and begged for the kenner
alien toy. i opened all of my presents that morning but the alien was nowhere
to be found. i can still remember my dad pointing under the end table.
there it was in all its creepy glory, complete with snapping jaws!
sad ending: i don't think i owned it for a full week. it scared the livin'
daylights out of me and my parents gave it away.
anyway, i've since grown to love that monster and i thought he'd translate
well to my more "designy" style." -tom whalen
