One Easter morning, a Sunday School teacher asked 
her class if they knew the origins of this, special 
day. 

One young man responded immediately, "It's opening 
day for the Yankees and Giants". Not wishing to 
stifle creative thinking, the teacher responded, 
"What a wonderful answer! 

But I had something else in mind". 

A young girl then stood and remarked, "That's the day 
we get nice new clothes and go find the eggs from the 
Easter Bunny. "That's right", said the teacher," But 
there's something else just a little more important. 

A young man then jumped up and yelled, "I know, I 
know!!. "After Jesus died on the cross, some of his 
friends buried him in a tomb they called a sepulcher". 

The teacher thought, "I don't believe it, someone 
actually knows". The little boy continued, "and three 
days later Jesus arose and opened the door of the 
tomb and stepped out". "Yes, yes, said teacher, 
"Go on, go on! And the youngster said "And if he sees 
his shadow, we have six more weeks of bad weather".

         ~~~  Strange Things to do With Other People  ~~~

1. Have a water drinking contest. (Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)

    While the competition is fun, you probably won't feel too good
 afterward.  To give your event an old western theme, slam the cups
 upside down on the tables after you have emptied them.


2. Stare at the back of someone's head until they turn around.
    (Amusement Potential: 2-5 minutes)

    This works on the "I have the feeling I'm being watched" principle.
 Conduct as an experiment, with log book - does this really work?


3. Have a "Who is less competitive" competition. (AP: 1-3 minutes)

    Trying to win at this will make you lose.  Trying to lose makes you
 win which makes you lose. Not trying at all makes you lose which makes
 you win which makes you lose.


4. Pick up a dog so it can see things from your point of view.
    (Amusement Potential: 3-5 minutes)

    Think about it: your dog has only seen the house from a viewpoint
 from 6" to 2' high (15 to 60 cm for all you metric fans).  It's never
 seen the tops of counters, what you keep on your desk, the tops of
 shelves, etc.  Try looking at things from its point of view, too.


5. Pull out a hair, stick in someone's ear. (AP: 1-5 minutes)

    Best done to sleeping people.  Added challenge in having no one else
 around, because then you can't blame it on anyone else.  Try to beat
 your record number of times before the person catches on.


6. Dip hand in water, fake a sneeze while flicking water on back of
    person's neck. (Amusement Potential: 5-15 minutes)
