Thanks to Dan Meyer for giving me my daily chuckle…from a World History exam given at his school:

Q. You are unexpectedly transported to England in the year 1000 AD with what you are wearing, what you know, and nothing else. What challenges do you face?Specifically, how do you survive?

A. Only what you are wearing and what you know? Well, I’m wearing a fully-comped Springfield DA in a shoulder rig, counterbalanced with three extra mags. I’ve got a Spyderco Police Model in the back pocket of my jeans, a pretty extensive magpie board in my wallet, and I know how to make grain explode. So, me, I’m headed straight for my new castle, comprende?

Awesome. I’m totally reminded of why I love teenagers.
