“You’ll shoot your eye out.” “Fa-ra-ra-ra-raaa, ra-ra-ra-ra.” “Daddy’s gonna kill Ralphie.” “Ohhhh, fudge.” The great thing about movies is that there’s almost always at least one solid and totally quotable line from the movie that can be recognized by anyone at any given time. The norm for these, though, tends to be something along the lines of “a summer movie,” such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Super Troopers and Army of Darkness … but what happens when the movie is far from “a summer movie,” but instead falls more along the lines of “holiday movie.” Like, say, a Christmas themed movie. Why, some might even call the movie a “Christmas story” movie. Then there are others, like myself, that call A Christmas Story, directed by Bob Clark, a true phenomenon.

More dolphin-related news
A species of river dolphin in China is basically extinct. For those of you keeping score in the war on animals at home, that’s one down, several billion left to go.
What, too soon?
Headline of the Day At This Point
One would expect to see this in the National Enquirer or something. However, let’s not forget, this was aiding the enemy in the War on Animals.
Damn dolphins.
Another reason not to go to work
According to a report done by Flinder University in Australia, that crazy island of Australia might be known for their partying, but they can’t take the hangovers that come with them. The country takes more than 2.6 million sick days because of alcohol.
Aussies? Time to replace the “A” with a “P.”
