David Sedaris Easter Bell (funny)

I remember someone posted this last year, and I think it's funny enough to post again. I'm including two versions. The first is the lengthy version that contains everything. The second is the live and shorter version.

It adds something to the story. The longer version is the best because there is a lot more detail.

"Us and Them". I found it on NPR: https://www.npr.org/programs/morning/features/2004/jun/sedaris/usandthem.html

I think it may be a bit dated for my students, but they can relate to the Halloween candy part.
