You would think the second guy would have learned not to mess with the Parson's bull.

A quibble: they're not "500 year old records" if they're from 1656-1663....

"Huh?"

Guess they didn't get many trained bands in those parts. Maybe it was sort of like horses dying of fright over locomotives back in the 1800's. It does sound funny though, "Ye trained bands? Ye trained BANDS?!!! AIIEEEEE!!!" thud.

In Roman Empire days, students used a wax tablet to write on with a stylus.

More than one teacher was killed by irate, styli-wielding students.

(another factoid from the Utterly useless bits of data department)

Oddly enough, I was wondering about that just a few days ago...I suppose he then went on to discuss long S's that look like lower-case Fs?

How many boards could the Mongols hoard, if the Mongol hordes got bored?

"town militia company"

Oh well, that makes more sense I guess, but it's not nearly as amusing.
