Okay, Gentle Readers, here’s my first batch of vacation pics and vids, set in chronological order! During the 5-hour flight from Las Vegas to New York’s John F Kennedy airport, I met a funny blond kid, about 12 years old, named Ethan, not only a self-proclaimed expert on Africa (except the cities, lol) and the solar system (except the moons, lol) but also the future husband of Britney Spears’ little 16-year-old sister Jamie Lynn, lol.<\/p>\n

We battled against each other on the onboard-computer trivia game: I was QQQQQQ and he was ETTAAA. I won a couple times and he won a couple times, but Ethan’s highest score ultimately beat my highest score. He made fun of me, lol, but when someone else on the plane earned a better highest score than either of us, I made fun of him, hahaha! His mom fainted during the flight, but fortunately, she made it through okay…<\/p>\n
