Sarah Smile - "I think my second favorite Jordan story is the one where we tried to steal a shopping cart.* But I'd rather tell my favorite, which is the one where we were driving through Minnesota, and she had a backscratcher, which she pushed down her sleeve so it looked as if it was her hand. Jordan has this incredible gift for physical comedy, and I won't attempt to explain exactly HOW it was funny, just take my word for it that it WAS. And she started to entertain the other cars on the road with this routine. The truck driver behind us was really enjoying it, until he started laughing so hard he ran a jetta off the road."
Dillon - "Wow."
Sarah Smile - "Yeah, we didn't know if we should stop or something, but we just kept on."
Dillon - ".........."
Sarah Smile - "Oh, I should clarify. When I say, 'ran off the road,' I mean there was a lot of swerving and dust from being half on the road and half in a field. The truck and the jetta never made contact and nobody was hurt. If they had, it definately would have clarified the whole, 'stop or don't stop' question. The truck and the jetta kept driving as well, after exchanging some rather understandable gestures. I meant, we didn't know if Jordan should, like, stop entertaining the other drivers."

* In hindsight, my second favorite Jordan story was the one where we bought presents for people we didn't know and got terribly tied up in the ribbon, but you kinda had to be there for that one.
