A story from Schenk

Schenk sent me a letter. It has been edited into metric.

Last night it was brutally cold, so me and Michael decided to go skating at this salt pond next to the ocean, about a 10min
walk from my house. It rained on friday, so we both figured there’d be a good coating of fresh water ice over the salt water ice so our skates wouldn’t rust. So after we were done skating, I was like, “Hmm, I wonder if my skates are salty…?” and there’s only one way to find that out!

I’m sure you can see this coming a mile from 1.6 kilometers away.

So I find myself with an ice skate semi-permanently affixed to my face!

I’m like how the heck can I get this off? Luckily, Quick Thinking Schenk ended up walking through this little path through the woods in the middle of the night, with a skate attached to his face, over to WHOI (woods hole oceanographic institute). As I’m walking through the woods I’m like, what if I get frostbite and they amputate my tongue!! Luckily, I made it to WHOI, stumble into some research lab where there’s scientists doing science, and I’m like, “Pi!! I hab thith spate thuck to my fffape! Do you hab a bafroob with sobe hot waber??”

Luckily they did, and I got the skate off my face, and all is well. But of course the next time I go to a party in Woods Hole, somebody’s gonna be like, “hey you’re that jerk who got the skate attached to his face!!”

So there you have it. The adventures of Ryan Schenk
