Let it snow, let it snow...

Well the first big major snowstorm is falling here in Boston. I must say it's rather pretty to watch... but it would be even more pretty if I didn't have to be out in it! :) Took some pictures for my California family members... Macy's at Downtown Crossing has Christmas windows featuring my favorite holiday movie - "A Christmas Story"

Ralphie : Oooh fuuudge!
Ralphie as Adult: 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!
Mr. Parker: What did you say?
Ralphie :Uh, um...
Mr. Parker: That's... what I thought you said. Get in the car. Go on!
Ralphie as Adult: It was all over - I was dead. What would it be? The guillotine? Hanging? The chair? The rack? The Chinese water torture? Hmmph. Mere child's play compared to what surely awaited me.

Mr. Parker: Fra-gee-lay. That must be Italian.
Mrs. Parker: Uh, I think that says FRAGILE, dear.
Mr. Parker: Oh, yeah.

Ralphie as Adult: The old man stood there, quivering with fury, stammering as he tried to come up with a real crusher. All he got out was...
Mr. Parker: Notafinga!
