NO EXCEPTIONS!
Ahem.
We do it in order, taking turns. So if I start with A you have to get B and so on.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
We played Geography on road trips. One person names a place, then the next person has to name a place starting with the last letter of the first place, and so on. After a while, you usually get stuck in A for a while, until someone remembers Amsterdam. And you can't repeat places that someone else already said.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, we go in order. It's always a bummer when we pass Quincy too early...
Oh, Sue. Sorry.
In fun news, I was idly considering going to get something bad for dinner, when someone on the street handed me a thing of Pringles! Pickle-flavored Pringles. They're pretty good, actually. And totally satisfy "something bad for dinner."

Or you never went on family road trips
We went on tons of road trips, but we all had books--except Daddy, who drove, of course. Oh, we did spot license plates, trying to get all the states. The state you were in at the time didn't count. Alaska needed independent confirmation.

Is it the kind you just screw in like a lightbulb?YEP! and the new fuse fixed the AC. WOOT. I'm still thinking of moving Grace back into the bedroom so we only need to air condition one room.

Nice! The only problem with those fuses is having them on hand -- the actual changing is easy. As you know.

The changing is easy, but a little scary.

The Americans immediately took this opportunity to swoop up all the womenfolk.
Nice to see the French apparently learned well from this mistake.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
We made words from the letters on lisence plates. Letters had to be in the order they were printed. SLK could be slack, slake, slick, or silk. Silk wins because it has the fewest letters added to what's on the plate. SCK: sick wins over sack or sock because i is "shorter" than o or a.

Our wings are not tired.
We played all of those games ("we" being me and my poor cousin Buffy - we did coast-to-coast road-trips with my grandfather several times a year when we were kids) and more. But our specialty was annoying everyone in the car with non-stop singing of "The Gambler" and "Copa Cabana".
