Necessary Summer Skills

Today, my children illustrated why school is necessary for at least 9 months of the year.

They developed an Olympic sport all their own, Samurai banana peeling. 

To explain, they toss said banana in the air and slice it in mid air with a butter knife. 

They then eat.

No one has been hurt so far, but 15 bananas have been thus consumed as a result of the momentary entertainment value.  At what price boredom?  Apparently 58cents a pound.
