Yesterday I was stuck in post-hurricane traffic between Massachusetts and Toronto, it was...a time. Ryan and Jenn were in the car in front of us, he has enumerated some of the amusements we used below his comic here ! We also listened to the whole (16 hours!) audio version of Bill Bryson's At Home: A Short History of Private Life , which was easily diverting enough to keep our minds of the traffic situation, and especially suited for road trips, as each chapter trips through various historical anecdotes without worrying too much about an overall story.
