i havent thought about this in about 100 years, but when i was in third grade my class took a trip to the zoo, which was, in and of itself, amazing...how could the story get better you ask? well this guy was talking to us about turtles whatnot and had a huge shell that actually had backpack-style straps attached to it to demonstrate that it was actually so big it could fit over your back..when he asked for a volunteer, you better believe i ran right on up there, eager to sieze the opportunity to be a hero on the half shell for 5 minutes. that was the closest i ever became to actually being a ninja turtle (lets face it that halloween costume wasnt all that convincing) and that day i held my head a little higher and twirled my nunchucks a little faster
