"Let's mix things up this Thanksgiving. Instead of all of us going to your folks', let's just drop off the kids, drive away and never look back."

Woman dreaming about being on vacation.

MEDICAL SCHOOL, 'I didn't know you COULD specialize in insurance.'

That's all very well sir, but is it full strength, low fat, high calcium or soy?

Message in a bottle.

Teacher's Lounge

'Not Andy. He'd rather do anything than go on the family vacation.'

'If you keep running away, son, you'll never make it through your formative years.'

"Hon, I feel like riding out into big-sky country."

"And this brings to a conclusion, thank goodness, our broadcast day."

Yet another family that decided to drop everything and follow The Grateful Dead around for a while.

"Genuine? Of course it's genuine...zirconia."

'A lovely area, but not enough waiters!'
