Refresh my memory. "A Christmas Story" is the movie about the boy wanting his "Daisy Red Ryder" B.B. Gun. Right. If that the title, then It is my favorite of all. I'll never forget how the mother dressed the kid for school. So much clothing that he fell down and could not get up. Saw a cartoon recently that reminded me of it. Two small boys were playing and one had on way to much clothing and the kid was saying to the other "My Mother Was Cold Today".

Oh, yes the kid taking the double dare and putting his tongue on the frozen flag pole which required the Fire Department had to rescue him.

Maybe it dates me, but I lived parts of that movie.

The narration, the wacky dad, all the stupid stunts like the tongue on the flagpole - nope, I'm not watching it EVER again.

LMBO!!! That is so funny. It's one of my all time favorites, too.

"Randy lay there like a slug. It was his only defense."

One of my favorite parts is where the mother calls the other boys mother to tell her that Ralphie learned a curse word from him. In the background you just hear, "What did I do, ma?? What did I do??"
