kids can be entertained by just about anything. coloring books, snacks, travel games (yunno, the games that are magnetized so the pieces stay put, if you have any), even string keeps them busy. And as far as I can tell, kids don't really care if the movie is new or not. Mostly what I do is put on my headphones, turn on my mp3 player or CD player (loud enough that I can't hear them too much, but not loud enough to annoy any adults that might be in the car) and turn on my DS. If you don't have a CD player or mp3 player, demand the front seat and focus on your game. they'll leave you alone most of the time.

I usually keep stuff like that for a year. If it's something that could possibly be an issue of proof later, then I'll keep it for a very long time.

most records that relate (in ANY way) to your taxes should be held for a rolling seven years. (SHRED anything that has your personal information on it...address, social security account number, driver's license number, etc...)
one additional caution...if you are an EMPLOYER you must retain any personnel records forever...
(rolling seven years: anything from 1999 or earlier may be destroyed...destroy tax year 2000 records in January 2008)
