Happy Easter

Easter, the time when all good children get candy and all naughty children get to go to church. Not really, but usually holidays involving presents has some king of good/bad thing going on. What does happen if your naughty on Easter? Does the easter bunny take back his eggs? Do you get coal instead of chocolate? I personally favor getting "a bag of switches", as my grandmother used to say. That was what we would get for Christmas from Santa if we were bad. Somehow, now that I think of it, giving a "bad" child a bag of switches seems like a bad idea. Wouldn't that child then just use the switches to beat everyone within reach? And for those of you who aren't from the south, a bag of switches means you get a bag of limbs off a bush that would be long, thin, and good for getting your ass whipped. Not that I ever received such a spanking, mine always involved a belt. Ah, childhood memories...



Happy Easter everyone. Or as my friend Jeremy so eloquently put it "Happy Zombie Jesus Day"!
