If I go running across town, stop at a bridge, bend over the rail and call out for Clarence...

Will I look up to find it's snowing, there is no "Pottersville," and that we actually have a President-elect Clinton?
Who would have ever known that It's a Wonderful Life was a sci-fi movie.

And the part about getting drunk and wrecking the car?

Is Sam Wainwright buying him a new car too?

Bailey'a a peach to have around if you have a drinking problem. Nearly poison someone, no problem, your secret is safe with him. Lose 10 G's? Don't sweat it, a racial stereotype will give you her divorce money.

Get drunk and wreck your car? Hey, the cops will take you home to a party!

Of course, he had to use an operator assisted connection system to cuss out his kid's teacher and her husband.

My favorite line of the movie is when he shouts, "Let me tell you what I REALLY think of your wife!"
