[Vision2020] Brrrrrr!

Physical Geography...
Yeah I remember that in ninth grade, I got kicked out of class.
Teacher, pointing to graphic: "Kai, you fish a lot. Where would be the best

Me: "In the water."
Cue long discussion in principal's office and yet more time in detention. 
"Sigh"
Technically, I WAS correct.
