Corrupting young minds
Daily Life in the Middle Ages is just the perfect course to TA. I get to use my repertoire of anecdotes about medieval food, sex, violence and bodily functions in every single class. Today, for instance, the conversation segued from the stews of Southwark to the infamous testicle-twisting trial by combat in Galbert of Bruges' Murder of Charles the Good. The latter got a visceral physical reaction from the guys in the room.

This is too entertaining to be work. South American colonial history wasn't nearly this much fun.
