In other news, local boy receives BB gun for Christmas, shoots eye out



Two Indiana boys stick their tongues to frozen flagpoles. Hey, if it was a triple-dog dare, you don't really have any choice in the matter...

Speaking of A Christmas Story, (you do know this was right out of a scene from that movie, don't you?) I like that the Official A Christmas Story website is at www.flickstongue.com, Flick being the kid in the movie who, on a triple-dog dare from his friends, stuck his you-know-what to you-know-where.

As for how they filmed that particular scene, no tongues were in any danger of being frozen; they used a special pole with a hole, and a vacuum was used to make Flick's tongue stick to the hole giving it the appearance of being frozen.
