Just in time for the holiday season, CPA firm consultant Rita Keller of Keller Advisors has decided to do her own version of a scene from the now-classic Jean Shepherd movie “A Christmas Story,” adapted for accountants.
No, it’s not any of the scenes involving a leg lamp. Actually, it’s the almost too painful to watch scene where a little boy takes the “triple-dog dare” of licking a flag pole on an icy winter day and promptly gets his tongue stuck to the pole.
Using social media is generally considered safer than tonguing a frozen flag pole, though it’s still a good idea to be careful about those holiday party photos you post on your Facebook page.

Credit to Rita for re-enacting this. (Who doesn't love "A Christmas Story?")
Of course, Rita is a full-grown adult and wise consultant- her interntional endeavor is probably well planned.
My experience at age 8 at my Vermont elementary school left me (or, my tongue anyways) quite unintentionally stuck on chain-link fence. Ouch! (The price you pay for trying to lick at fresh-fallen snow.)
As for social media, for many it's a crawl-walk-run process-unlike a do-or-don't proposition of licking a frozen flag pole, you can ease your way in.
