King Easter
I was given the onus of responsibility for constructing an easter basket this year. The reason for this is simple: I was not going to drive to Wrentham, which is where the only Harry and David's in the area is, now that the one in Natick has closed. Every year wife Deb and daughter Becky-- and possibly son Tim-- would go to the Harry and David's and overspend the hell out of this holiday on a single basket for the whole family. So I went to the Natick Mall alone and bought a crapload of Godiva chocolates, a few random jellybeans and milk duds, and a copy of King Kong on DVD.

Kong prompted the following exchange between my wife and myself on Easter Sunday:

Wife: what does King Kong have to do with Easter?
Me: um... Kong died for our sins?
