...all wacked on scoobie snacks

Dan tells me, "I was outside with one of my students the other day, and he said, 'Look there's a Robin. HEY! Robin is a bird's name, and Robin Hood is a movie name!"

"You should have told him that Robin is also a person's name."

"I did. I said, 'Robin is also a person's first name, so Robin Hood is that guy's name.'"

"Well played."

"More precisely it's Robin The Hood.'"

"Why, because he wore a hood? I always thought because he lived in the hood. But I guess he really lived in the woods."

"You know what he'd be called if he lived today, don't you?"

"No, what?"

"Robin Banks, yo!"
