Made by yours truly for a Christmas ornament gift exchange for my department at work. The idea was to bring an ornament that is either no longer on the tree rotation, tacky enough to never be on the tree rotation, or whatever you would like to buy or make, as long as it is Christmas ornament related. Enjoy!
I know just enough to be dangerous, but don't tell my wife, she thinks I'm a genius. :D

    I'd like to see the sparkplugs with the gap ends radiating outwards,
    drilled out, and with a blinking lights on the ends. Nothing says XMAS
    like firing sparkplugs!
