    Same here...I put the marathon on here Christmas Day for background entertainment, my brother and I crack up, the wives and my mother don't find it funny...hopefully my son is getting old enough to appreciate it now (6) so we can even the score.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    "Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word!"

    :D

    "somewhere Swartz was getting his"

    I loves this part. Hearing that poor kid getting his ass wailed on through the phone cracks me up.

    Not liking A Christmas Story might be acceptable...

    if she doesn't like Christmas Vacation... then the question is still valid. :)

  • I always thought TNT showed the movie every year...I went through my channel guide last night and didn't see it listed ?!?!?!

    Here's why :

    It's that time of the year again--time for your television guide to be taken over by Christmas-themed shows and movies (with the occasional regular program mixed in). And just like every other year, TBS is running a 24-hour marathon of the 1983 A Christmas Story starting tonight at 8PM. If that’s not your cup of tea, there are plenty of other options for Christmas Eve.

    Phew..its on TBS

    Ok now my life can continue
