Ralphie, what would you like for Christmas?

Horrified, I heard myself blurt it out! I want a

Ooooh!

No. You'll shoot your eye out.

Oh no! It was a classic mother, BB-gun block. "You'll shoot your eye out!" That deadly phrase honored many times by hundreds of mothers was not surmountable by any means known to Kid-dom, but such as my mania, my desire for a Red Ryder carbine, that I immediately began to rebuild the dike.

Heh, I was just kidding, even though Schwartz is getting one. I guess I'd just like some

I couldn't believe my own ears. Tinkertoys? She'd never buy it.

I actually knew a man who got an eye permanently damaged by such a projectile when I was a teen. Fortunately that was after my parents bought my Daisy cock n pop.

But I guess somewhere there are idiots with projectile pooters even to this day.

i like a very few christmas movies...i disliked "a christmas story" at first viewing. i like the santa clause because it was funny.

i'd rather watch the black and white "a christmas carol" with alistair sim in it, or the muppet christmas carol. and if the 'rents had a dvd player, i'd take THOSE over to watch!

I played Santa a few weeks ago. A kid asked for a BB gun. I couldn't resist I told him you'll shoot your eye out. The kid gave me a weird look. His parents started chuckling.
