A well-known scientist once gave a public lecture on astronomy. At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: "What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise." The scientist gave a superior smile before replying, "What is the tortoise standing on?" "You're very clever, young man, very clever", said the old lady. "But it's turtles all the way down!" Stephen Hawking 'A Brief History of Time'

Warning: May Contain Nuts
At last, a truly Easter Easter egg.
Church leaders have welcomed the sale of 'The Real Easter Egg' this year. The packaging tells customers: "Easter is all about cute bunnies, fluffy chicks and eating too much chocolate, right? Well, not quite. We happen to think it's a bit more meaningful than that. That's because billions of people all over the world believe that Jesus died on the cross on Good Friday, then rose again three days later … on Easter Sunday. Actually, many believe that chocolate eggs represent the boulder that sealed his tomb."
According to my fingers, three days after Good Friday is Bank Holiday Monday. Moreover, 'The Festival of Eostre' is what Easter is really about.
