		<description>The sledding part is the best quote of the whole movie...

Clark - &quot;It&#039;s a new kitchen lubricant my company has been working on... 

  We&#039;re really gonna fly down the hill with this stuff...&quot;

Eddie - &quot;Don&#039;t put any of that on my sled Clark, remember the metal plate in my head?&quot;

Clark - &quot;How could I forget?&quot;

Eddie - &quot;Over at the VA they put in a new plastic one on account of every time Katherine revved up the microwave, I&#039;d piss my pants and forget my name for a half hour or so...  I don&#039;t think I want to go sailing down no hill with nothing between my brain and the ground but a piece of government plastic...&quot;

Clark - &quot;Do you really think it matters Eddie?&quot;

Eddie - &quot;Well, you see the plate runs right underneath my part, here, and over here, (slaps head) nothin&#039;, but if this over here gets dented, my hair just ain&#039;t gonna look right...&quot;</description>

		<description>Definitely a Christmas classic. 

Clark in the turban, furs and silk gloves, sitting in the attic watching old home movies.

The grandparents in the bunk beds.

*Ellen lights a cigarette*
Grandma: &quot;Ellen, are you smoking?&quot;
Ellen: &quot;No!&quot; *crushes out the cigarette and waves at the smoke*

The one light switch in the garage that controls all the outdoor lights.</description>

		<description>Chris, I found this blog because I googled  &quot;People Magazine cover in Christmas Vacation.&quot;  I watched this movie twice over the holidays with my family (not enough), and we are all VERY curious who that is.  Adolf Hitler?  I can&#039;t tell.  Any, just to throw in my two cents on my favorite exchange between Clark and Eddie...

Eddie: &quot;Yeah, I got the daughter in the clinic, getting cured off the Wild Turkey. And, the older boy, bless his soul, is preparing for his career.&quot;
Clark: &quot;College?&quot;
Eddie: &quot;Carnival.&quot;
Clark: &quot;You got to be proud.&quot;
Eddie: &quot;Oh, yeah. Yeah, last season he was a pixie-dust spreader on the Tilt-O-Whirl. He thinks that maybe next year, He&#039;ll be guessing people&#039;s weight or barking for the Yak woman. You ever see her?&quot;
Clark: &quot;No.&quot;
Eddie: &quot;She&#039;s got these big horns growing right out above her ears. Yeah, she&#039;s ugly as sin, but a sweet gal. And, a hell of a good cook.&quot;</description>

		<description>Our favorite quote is when Eddie&#039;s talking about Snots &quot;laying into your leg&quot; and he says, &quot;It&#039;s best to just let him finish.&quot;  That one gets thrown around a lot.  That and the &quot;Hallelujah, Holy Sh**.  Where&#039;s the Tylenol?&quot;

		<description>This movie is a family tradition in my house. But over the years, one question has lingered: Who the heck is on the cover of that People magazine Clark is reading in bed while talking to Ellen (the one where his sap-covered fingers tear the pages)?</description>

		<description>I love the fact that all of Mr. Shirley&#039;s gifts from his employees are all the same.

		<description>Count me in the minority who really doesn&#039;t care for NLCV.  It tries way too hard.  Same with &quot;Scrooged.&quot;  Unfortunately I&#039;m usually forced to watch both with the in-laws.  I find that the double shot of &quot;A Christmas Story&quot; and &quot;Bad Santa&quot; is a good antidote.</description>

		<description>I have YET to find a least funny movie than this one; stupid, vulgar, low brow, has Chevy Chase in it...

the ONLY part I have EVER laughed at is whne he turns on the lights and the electric meter spins like a buzz saw.</description>
