Teacher: And that is why the Texas flag has only one star on it.
Student: Is this gonna be on the test?
Teacher: .... Yes... you know what? Every word I utter from now on will be on your test. And, no, I will not slow down my lectures nor will I lessen the amount of information I will continuously vomit until the very second the bell rings.
A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
