Meet our Christmas Clock, forever to be known (to us) as "EBENEZER!"!

German made clock; dunno about the woodwork.  I bought it new soon after I closed the deal on the house just a bit over a couple of decades ago; it was an extravagance I could ill afford at the time.  During the subsequent Christmas seasons my future wife would proclaim "EBENEZER!" in a loud, ghostly voice each time the clock chimed soooooo it has since been monikered as "EBENEZER!"  After a few years I decided to preserve the clock's inner workings by only winding it and setting the correct time during the Christmas season, loosely defined as the period between Thanksgiving and New Years (I didn't get around to starting it up for this year until an hour ago).  If we are home for New Years I traditionally stop the clock at the stroke of midnight else whenever I can get to it.

Jacob Marley:
When the clock strikes one... the Ghost of Christmas Past
Ebenezer Scrooge:
I prefer not to think about the past
Jacob Marley:
When the clock strikes two... the Ghost of Christmas Present
Ebenezer Scrooge:
At the present I'd like to go to bed
Jacob Marley:
When the clock strikes three... the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Be! Three ghosts who yet may stop you ending up like me...
