The Control Have No Hair!

There's a very tall oak tree in the front yard next door. It's way taller than the telephone lines, and it's trimmed well back from them. It's also not very wide. Ever since my kids and I saw the movie "Bridge to Terebethia" (highly recommended, BTW), that tree has been the giant mountain troll that protects our house.

Lately, the tree has dropped its leaves, making the troll look like it's gone bald. My daughter noticed this in the morning as we walked past it to the bus stop. Pointing at the tree, she exclaimed: "the Control Have No Hair!".

"Control". Get it?
