National Lampoons Christmas Vacation

I thought I'd post some quotes from one of my favorite Christmas movies.

Clark: Since this is Aunt Bethany's 80th Christmas, I think she should lead us in the saying of Grace.

Aunt Bethany: [turns to Lewis] What, dear?

Nora Griswold: Grace!

Aunt Bethany: Grace? She passed away thirty years ago.

Uncle Lewis: They want you to say Grace. [Bethany shakes her head in confusion]

Uncle Lewis: The BLESSING!

Aunt Bethany: [they all pose for prayer] I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands/ One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Clark: Amen.

***************************
Bethany: Is your house on fire, Clark?

Clark: No, Aunt Bethany, those are the Christmas lights.

***************************

Ellen: What are you looking at?

Clark: Oh, the silent majesty of a winter's morn... the clean, cool chill of the holiday air... an asshole in his bathrobe, emptying a chemical toilet into my sewer... [Eddie, in the driveway, is draining the RV's toilet]

Eddie: Shitter was full.

Clark: Ah, yeah. You checked our shitters, honey?

Ellen: Clark, please. He doesn't know any better.

Clark: He oughta know it's illegal. That's a storm sewer. If it fills with gas, I pity the person who lights a match within ten yards of it.

**************************

Clark: Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?

Eddie: Naw, I'm doing just fine, Clark.

*********************************

Bethany: Is your house on fire, Clark?

Clark: No, Aunt Bethany, those are the Christmas lights.

*****************************

Uncle Lewis: Hey Grizz, Bethany and I figured out the perfect gift for you.

Clark: Aw, you didn't have to get me anything.
Uncle Lewis: Dammit, Bethany, he guessed it.

*****************************

Bethany: Don't throw me down, Clark.

Clark: I'll try not to, Aunt Bethany...

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas Time...

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Christmas time. I keep Christmas music on my iPod all year long. So on October 20th, when Bing Crosby's Silver Bells comes on my iPod, it gives me warm fuzzys. Not only because Bing Crosby reminds me of my grandpa who passed away 10 years ago this December, but because of all the traditions that goes into this holiday!!

This year, I get to keep those traditions going with my new daughter! I can't wait until she gets older and get's excited about Santa and finding the Pickle and singing Silent Night at the Christmas Eve church service (along with the candles that you get to hold) and getting to stuff herself so full that she could fall asleep at the dinner table.

That's just a few of the reasons why I love Christmas!
