What passes for excitement these days

Looks like another holiday season has come and gone. What makes a successful family vacation where I come from? Just follow these simple steps: 1. Eat some weird hippie goodness, preferably purchased from a weird hippie at a weird hippie market. (if it looks like that, it's either poisonous or good for you) 2. Get way too competitive playing kiddie games ( WHICH I WON BY THE WAY SO STICK THAT IN YOUR PHD PIPE AND SMOKE IT) 3. Encourage idiotic behavior by otherwise sensible people ( done and done)
