Fast focus: Lessons from Ralphie

My favorite Christmas movie is A Christmas Story. What little boy's Christmas wouldn't be complete without at least once in their childhood getting a BB gun. (Especially if you're lucky enough to get one with a compass in the stock and a thing that tells time) and I'm proud to say never once did I or any of my childhood friends shoot our eyes out! The movie even teaches us life lessons about playground bullies, why you should avoid swearing, how to get a child to eat, why you don't take dares from your friends, showing a little leg still leaves something to the imagination, you don't have to return a gift just because you don't like it (just wear it when your relative who sent it to you is around) and best of all, no Christmas present or dinner will be perfect but spending time with your family always will be a great Christmas.
