Nightmare Before Christmas Jack Antenna Topper

Price: $4.66

Jack lasted about 8 minutes on my antenna. I heard him hit the trunk then, in my rearview mirror, saw him bounce down the highway behind me and disappear in the grass. Jack was gone. "The King of Halloween has been blown to smithereens!"

It looked really good, nice shape and very noticeable, and we bought it to replace a limited edition Jack Skellington antenna ball that we'd had for years and had been stolen (presumably). The car we put it on has its antenna on the roof, centerline, above the rear window with a little bit of aft-angle. At freeway speeds, I'd catch glimpses of it in the rearview window, and sometimes you could see in the shadow of the car that it was bobbing around wildly, which my wife and I thought only added to the appeal of the thing. It lasted about a month, then one day I made a morning run to the store. I know it was there when I got in the car, but it was very cold and dewey and I had to hit freeway speeds to get there, and I think maybe some frost or contraction of the rubber caused it to fly off on a thirty minute ride. If you buy it, glue it on. I think I might order another one but we live in the City and if I glue it, someone may steal the entire antenna.

I ordered this antenna topper, not for my antenna but for my holiday tree. My intention was to glue on a little red hat, and it was largely successful. It wasn't clear from the product description whether or not it would be large enough, but I took the chance. As it turns out, it is approximately the size and weight of a tennis ball. On a six-and-a-half foot tree, it seems a little small to me, but everyone else who saw it seemed to enjoy the effect. I'll definitely be keeping it around for next year.

Fourth season of USA's 'In Plain Sight' gets off to a disappointing start

Feb 05, 1934 | Longer-range story development looks to have fallen by the wayside

I want to be more excited about the fourth season of “In Plain Sight.” I want to be but I just can’t.

USA’s serio-comic drama about a team of U.S. Marshals in charge of coordinating witness protection placements returned Sunday night which, given the other televised events of that night could partly explain my relative lack of excitement.

I mean, it’s hard to get too worked up about a couple stolen prop vehicles once you’ve learned a real mass murderer has been captured, killed and dispatched forthwith in as no-nonsense a manner as can be managed.

But I’d planned to write about the fourth season premiere this week so I dutifully tore my attention away from world events and watched as “In Plain Sight” informed me, among other things, that a lump of lead putty at the end of a global-positioning system antenna effectively obliterates the vehicle’s anti-theft protections.

Massive Hail Storm Left Big "Dent" In Cars

Apr 25, 2011 | ABILENE, Texas -- Lines started forming early Monday morning at auto repair shops, as thousands of cars in Abilene got hammered with hail.

Reports ranged from pea to softball sized hail---that's nearly 4 inches in diameter.

Abilene fireman J. Sanders assessed the damage Monday morning after severe weather tore through town Sunday night dropping base ball sized hail at station two. He had hail damage to the station's SUV, including a cracked window, cracked paint, several large dents and it even hit the GPS antenna. "I parked it under a mesquite tree," said Sander, "but the tree is half gone."

Wade Keeling can hardly see out of his truck as spider-like broken glass covers the drivers side, "If it (the hail) hit the front it would just shatter but the safety glass kept it from busting in. But if the hail hit the back, like all those cars, it explodes."

When we talked to Keeling Monday, he had already been waiting 4 hours to get it fixed with no guarantee Read more »
