Shop Class #6

[manofthemullet.livejournal.com]

Apparently one of the emitters is the problem as he has it disassembled and the parts are scattered across the desk.

Mac looks up from his work with a sad look on his face.

"I know all of you have probably heard about Kitty Pryde. I don't know how well you all knew her or not, but Dean Bristow has asked all the faculty members to devote some class time to talk about her death with everyone in an open format. I'll leave that up to you on how much you want to participate."

"First let me tell you all how much I enjoyed your essays on duct tape. I like them so much I'm assigning another essay while I fix this emitter. The topic today is Swiss Army Knives, and their wonder ability to do almost anything. That will be a in-class 100 word essay due before the end of the period."

((OOC: I will be AFK until late tonight. Please don't blow anything up while I'm gone. Otherwise detention will be involved. Or worse.))

*turns in essay and a catalog (http://www.swissarmy.com/multitools/Category.htm?category=doityourself&)*

Swiss army knives provide proof that human beings are capable of advanced levels of abstract and pragmatic thought. Having one in your pocket or other hidden places means that you are never without resources, even if you happen to be locked in a cell or trapped on an alien spaceship. I have used them to get myself out of many situations I would have preferred not to have been in and that I usually got into because Jack or Daniel said or did something stupid. Their usefulness is limited only by human creativity. The new ones can help you hack into computers. Not that I would.
