My favorite little scene is when John Candy tries to trade his watch for a motel room. "It's a Casio" Next thing you see, he's trying to sleep in the car. :)

Exactly what made it so funny. It's all in the Presentation. :D

And yes, some very poignant moments in that movie. When Steve finally gets home to his beautiful wife . . . reminds me of V every time. :)

Did you catch the part where he tried to sell shower curtain rings to the teenage girl as bracelets?

Boy, I hope I remembered that right. Maybe I need to watch the movie again.
