Time travel back to 1000 A.D.: Survival tips

An engrossing discussion about what you'd have to do in order to succeed (or even stay alive) if you were somehow transported back to Europe in 1000 A.D.
Personally I agree with the pessimists among the commenters. Day-to-day life skills and language would be nearly impossible to master in the time you had before you starved or were knocked on the head or burned or drowned or run down by a galloping horse. Where do you go to the bathroom? What if you look the wrong person in the eye, or don't salute the right person? How long would you last if pressed into farm labor?
