Last week's moments of "huh"

For various nonsensical reasons, I own a lot of Star Trek prop replicas toys. Last Tuesday, I got another one -- the Classic Series Communicator. (It actually came out of the box damaged; Now I get to figure out thinkgeek.com's return policy.)

Anyway, I had it with me at work (the package arrived just as I was out the door, and I just took it with me). One of my students, who is all of seven years old, actually recognized the thing. “ああっ!　知っている!　これがテレビ番組でみた!　未来の携帯だと思う．．．”

Later that evening, I had a class with some high school students. We were talking about sightseeing, and there were pictures of various famous landmarks in the text book. One of them was of the Golden Gate Bridge, and when Takuto saw this picture, he started singing the theme of "Full House," which is inexplicably still popular here.

Maybe that last one was more of a "gah!" than a "huh."
