excited about it too. It's a crying shame the older kids couldn't make it. I'll get that. Don't worry about it. Let me get it. Yeah, I got the daughter in the clinic, getting cured off the Wild Turkey. And the older boy, bless his soul, is preparing for his career. - College? - Carnival. - You gotta be proud. - Oh, yeah. Yeah, last season he was a pixie-dust spreader on the Tilt-O-Whirl. He thinks maybe next year... .. he'll be guessing people's weight or barking for the Yak Woman. - You ever see her? - No. She's got these big horns growing right out above her ears. Yeah, she's ugly as sin, but a sweet gal. And a hell of a good cook. Can I refill your eggnog? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to nowhere and leave you for dead? No, I'm doing just fine, Clark. Just glad to be here. Yeah. So when did you get the tenement on wheels? Oh, that there? That's an RV. Yeah, yeah. I borrowed it off a buddy of mine. He took my house... .. I took the RV. It's a good-looking vehicle, ain't it? Yeah. Looks so nice parked in the driveway. Yeah, it sure does. But don't you go falling in love with it now. Because we're taking it with us when we leave here next month. Well, get Ed Leftic up here to look over these figures. Oh, retooling. That's a great excuse. Retooling?! I'll retool you! - Mr. Shirley, merry Christmas. - Who's that? - It's me, Clark Griswold. - What do you want? My wife and I came up with a little something special. It's a gift. Put it over there with the others, greaseball. By the way, I hope my report helped out at the trade show. I'm sure it did, Grisball. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm in the middle of an important call. Get me somebody. Anybody. And get me somebody while I wait. This is a new silicon-based kitchen lubricant my company's been working on. It creates a surface 500 times more slippery than any cooking oil. We're gonna fly down the hill with this stuff. - Has anyone ever used it on a sled? - Not that I know of, Russ. Well, don't go putting none of that stuff on my sled, Clark. - You know that metal plate in my head? - How could I forget? I had to have it replaced because every time Cathrine revved up the microwave... ...I'd piss my pants and forget who I was for a half-hour or so. Over at the V.A. They replaced it with a plastic one and it ain't as strong, so... I don't know if I ought to go down no hill with nothing between... ...the ground and my brain but a piece of government plastic. - You really think it matters, Eddie? - The plate runs underneath my part here. Over here it's, you know, nothing. But here, if this gets dented, then my hair just ain't gonna look right. Yeah, I know the feeling. I better try this first, see how it works. - Well, you be careful there. - There's nothing to worry about, Eddie. Going for a new amateur recreational saucer-sled land-speed record: Clark W. Griswold Jr.! Remember, don't try this at home, kids. I am a professional. Later, dudes. Let her rip. Hang 10. Oh, shit! This is great! It's great! It's great! I'm dead! Look out! Bingo. - Clark? You staying late? - Oh, hi, Bill. Yeah. Just finishing up a few things. Last day of the year for me. Well, have a really Merry Christmas. You too. - Are you okay? - Yeah. Bill, did you get your bonus yet? I just talked to my son. Company messenger brought something to the house. I guess that's it. Nothing like waiting till the last minute, huh? Did you get yours? If it isn't at the house, I'm sure it's on its way. If I don't get that bonus, I'm in it up to here. Don't sweat it. It'll come. Merry Christmas. Same to you. Me? Santy Claus! Uncle Clark, are you Santy Claus? What? You scared me. No, I'm not Santa Claus. I wish I was. What are you doing up, sweetheart? - Rocky bit my thumb. - What? Him's nervous because Christmas is almost here. - Nervous or excited? - Shitting bricks. - You shouldn't use ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Конёк-Горбунок на английском - текст Дядя Бак на английском - текст Новый Гулливер на английском - текст Легион на английском - текст Хрусталёв, машину! на английском |
