I never wondered the ending of It's a wonderful life, he doesn't go to jail because the town saved him. Back in those days they forgave people for a mistake, it wasn't intentional. I never really figures out why anyone would do a song about Grandma and Grandpa getting run over by a reindeer.

And I often wonder about movies...especially our much loved Hallmark and Lifetime movies. I find so many weird inconsistencies in them. Last night I watched one where the a whole restaurant was decked out to the max with Christmas stuff that all came from one small carton. Gag me! Oh well, it's not Academy Award material, all those hunky widowed men pitted against each other would be so hard!<br /><br />I just met Kim online and her blog...she is so sweet.
