quote of the day: a very 'willard' christmas

“My equally demonic sister has a whole collection of rodents dressed in holiday clothes that she puts up around her house. There’s a mouse Santa Claus and mouse Mrs. Claus and mice elves and a miniature Christmas village with mice, and some rat Cinderella coachmen in pink waistcoats and rats in red velvet vests and more rats, wearing frilly red-and-white nightshirts and nightcaps and holding little candles, leading you up the steps to bed. It’s beyond creepy. I keep fretting that it’s going to be like Willard meets The Nutcracker, where they come alive and eat her like a Christmas pudding.”

- Maureen Dowd (New York Times: “Jingle Bell Schlock” - 12/05/04)
