Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 One of our Christmas rituals is to watch "A Christmas Story" sometime after Thanksgiving. Just watched it last night for the umpteenth time. Never get tired of it. So many memorable scenes, with my favorite being the department store Santa.
Dusty Balz, SASS#46599 Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 A classic, my wife will watch it 50 times between now and Christmas, "sons of bitches, Bumpusses"
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Posted December 2, 2010 I'm not the guy to do this, but some B Western shooter ought to re-create Ralphie's cowboy outfit from his fantasy scene. What a classic!
Complicated Lady Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 I love that movie! I made my kids watch it with me one year. They remember it as the year mom made us watch that stupid movie. I think it's a classic!
Barkeep Casey Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Ralphie, what happened? It was soap poisoning!

stepnmud#33546 Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Yes. Liked the timed event for changing the flat tire. Dad plugging in the Tree with all the multiple electrical wires going to one breaker in the basement. 'Fra-gi-le' as a major award. Yep!

Dog Ears Wilson, SASS #77948 Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Grover Dill a toady! You're a true fan. I actually blew it. Scut (the bully) had yellow eyes. Grover (the toady) had green teeth. Still lookin' for Ralphie's favorite soap and the kid who got his tongue stuck on the pole.

Still lookin' for Ralphie's favorite soap and the kid who got his tongue stuck on the pole. The kid on the pole was "Slick" hmmm the peety aftertaste, palmalive?
Dog Ears Wilson, SASS #77948 Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Flick Correct! Schwartz was the one who put him up to it - and the one that Ralphie blamed for teaching him the "F dash, dash, dash" word. BTW, if you don't have a flag pole handy, your tongue WILL stick to a can of frozen concentrated orange juice. Don't ask me how I know this.
Dog Ears Wilson, SASS #77948 Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 I cheated, I googled. That's OK, I'm not calling Ps today.
Shiloh Brown Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Daddies gona kill Ralphie! He layed there like a slug...it was his only defense! Have to watch it at least three times a year....the funny thing is that Flick's real name was Schwartz and Schwartz's real name is something else. And yes, Scut Farkus parents must have had money to afford braces back in the 40's
