Further evidence that I have the coolest hubby EVER.
He put this in the front room.
View from the street:
…like the soft glow of electric sex.
“What is it?”
“Why, it’s a major award!”
“But…what is it?”
“It’s a…uh…statue!”
“RALPHIE!”
…heh heh…I just had to get a pic of RuffLlama groping the Major Award. 
I just hope all of our new neighbors get the joke.
That is cool. Cute kid, too, and one who knows the good things in life already. 
Where did he get it?
I’m so envious. I knew what it would be when I saw the word “Ralphie,” and was delighted to be right.
I had it from electric sex.
I think I saw that in Entertainment Earth catalog (mainly action figures & similar collectibles) a while back- that was well over $100 I recall!
I can’t answer for the OP, but last year I almost started a thread called “You’ll shoot your eye out!” I thought it might be nice to include some links, so I googled “a christmas story.” In fact, I did that again just now.
This was the first hit I got.
What on Earth has them also.
DeathLlama says there are a number of places online that sell the lamp. He had no problem finding it. He’d had a profitable day at a casino, and wanted to splurge on something fun. It cost about $120, and is worth every penny.
I came home from work and found him in the front room unpacking two large boxes (one for leg, one for shade). I asked him what it was, and he grinned and said, “A major award.” My immediate reaction was “Nooo! Really? YOU ARE THE COOLEST HUBBY EVER!”
I’d also like to point out DeathLlama is not happy with the lamp’s present location. “It needs to be prominently displayed,” he said. Apparently, in front of a large window in the front of the house isn’t prominent enough…heh.
This is exceptionally cool, and now I want one! I have just the perfect window for it, too. My only hesitation (other than the price) is where/how to store it during the off season. Not to mention that with my husband, there could very well be no off season.
No Ruffian, you are the coolest wife ever!
