things the klein family likes to do on road trips

1. Listen to podcasts of “Philosophy Today!”
2. Play “guess the famous novel from its famous first line” (“It was the best of time, it was the…blerst of times?! Stupid monkey!”)*
3. Have Dina once again ask if she can get a modeling agent after looking at herself in the rear view mirror and remarking, “I’m pretty, aren’t I?”
4. Listen to Stephen Hawking “A Short History of the Universe” lectures
5. Play “name that famous jazz song from its first few bars”
6. Get McDonalds
7. Do Math workbooks (Dina)
8. Re-read Harry Potter books (Bassie)
9. Get really bad coffee at local rest stops (Rachel), every time thinking that “this coffee can’t be worse than the stuff I had at the last rest stop”. (Note: There are shockingly myriad ways for coffee to be bad.)
10. Taunting Rachel for getting shitty coffee once again, as though she were a mouse in a maze in a lab whose ability to learn from mistakes has been chemically blocked for the sake of an experiment about the learning process in animals. (Yosef)
11. Eat Swedish Fish.

*Note: this is not one of them

    I’m really glad you mentioned Swedish fish because I heard that since they’re fat free, it’s kind of like eating health food. (PSA)
