The Terrorists Just Won

Eric and I were in the car, waiting for a train to pass, when another train passes going the other way. Then a third train starts in the middle.

Eric: Man, this would be the perfect place to set up a bomb to blow up. I mean, if a terrorist could figure out when all these trains would be in the same place at the same time again, it would be the perfect terrorist plot - one of them is even a coal train!

Me: DUDE! Do you realize that TERRORISM is the ONLY real world application of that math problem that everyone has to answer in 5th grade. You know the one - "if a train leaves Baltimore at 7:30 am and travels at 92 miles per hour..."

Eric: DEAR GOD! That wasn't really an elementary school - it was a terrorist training camp!

Ahhh seriously though folks, I am going to end up on a No Fly list because of this blog one day...
