Yes, after a hard day pulling parts (and, in my case, wielding a camera), you'll be able to scarf down that turkey with extra gusto. And so, in honor of holiday junkyarding, I'm sharing a sampling of some of my Little Trees In Junked Cars series of photographs, each image radiating meaning the way a polonium/beryllium fissile-core initiator radiates neutrons. You really will find one in every car, kid. You'll see. Now make the jump to see the complete gallery.

<![CDATA[Got Ideas For New Little Trees? You Will Be Heard!]]> So after I posted the inspiring Fresh As A Junkyard Breeze Little Tree Air Freshener Movie last week, I got a pleasant email from a marketing manager at the Little Tree Air Freshener Empire Headquarters. It turns out they're watching us closely for our opinions of their fine line of tree-shaped automotive air fresheners, which means we're important tastemakers now!


Of course, I responded to her email with my sure-to-be-a-big-hit suggestion for a new flavor of Little Tree: The "British Car Smell" Little Tree, which is printed with a Union Jack and smells like burning wire insulation, with a hint of mildewed carpeting. I also suggested a full line of "You'll Find One In Every Car" trees, each printed with a different "Repo Man" character. Imagine, you could have Bud, Miller, Lite, Otto, J. Frank Parnell, Los Hermanos Rodriguez, Archie... I know I'd buy 'em all! So, given that their product-development and marketing staffs will no doubt read each and every one of your suggestions, let's have 'em!
