Home Alone vs. A Christmas Story
So far, the only movie to completely stomp the competition has been National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation which put those Gremlins in a blender yesterday. No word yet whether “Do You Here What I Hear” was playing on the stereo. Clark Griswold and fam are going to face their toughest matchup in Thursday’s final because today’s faceoff features a couple of heavy hitters.
You can call this semifinal matchup the battle of little blonde kids with blue eyes.

Both of these stories are well known, so there’s not much left to say. I have a pretty good idea of where Aunt Bethany’s going, but what about the rest of yous?
Time to start clicking because this one should be close the whole way. Go ahead and pick one. I dare ya like a gradeschooler next to a frozen flagpole. I dare ya like a bandit at the bottom of the steps. I triple dog dare ya!
Life. Culture. Education.
Life as Pop Culture Professor Clay Morgan
In The Matrix, Morpheus tells Neo he can take the blue pill and go on believing whatever he wants to believe. Or he can take the red pill to stay in Wonderland and find out how deep the rabbit hole goes.
This is a red pill type site that provides information in an entertaining way. It’s about clear thinking and good writing. It’s about finding meaning amidst the absurd. It’s about humor and truth.
I’m a writer / speaker who teaches history and political courses at a couple of local colleges. Where is local, you say? Well, that would be Wonderland of course.
On topics ranging from pop culture to the meaning of life, my brain’s always poppin’. Take the red pill and unplug.
