Middle school ninja

My name is Max, and I'm a totally bored middle schooler. My life is so lame that every day has started to feel like the same exact day ... that is, except for today. The school science club dug up a hundred-year-old time capsule filled with all the usual stuff like books, movies, CDs ... a letter that was addressed to me ... from my great-great-granddad, Chase Cooper. Crazy, right?
