Get the Charlie Baker Denver Row mug.A private school in Illinois that really should be in Evanston but is in Wilmette. Most people think it's a snotty school because of the money, but it's actually full of (somewhat) nice people, despite the incredibly tiny population. A great elementary program, by the time you're in middle school you're ready to get the hell out and move on to a public high school - but you had a lot of fun in middle school despite it being...well, middle school. Overall, a really solid school.

Get the Baker Daniel mug.In the Medieval Ages there was a period when bakers began cheating the public at such a rate that public outcry reached the ears of several kings. As bread was a daily staple of Medieval life, the bakers knew that they could charge a lot of money for minimal portions of their products. As such, kings levied laws against bakers stating that they were to lower their pricesand keep honest. In fact the common term "A Baker's Dozen" (meaning 13 instead of 12) came from this time period. Any baker caught selling less than an even dozen was strictly and harshly punished. As a result bakers began adding one extra loaf to be certain their count would be correct or even over the amount decreed by law.
