Among the curiosities was this wood carving of a bearded man's head, slightly larger than a loaf of, say, Wonderbread.
The elongated face; the protruding forehead overhanging deep-set eyes and a long triangular nose: It's a moai! You know what a moai is, right? That's one of those giant stone heads on Easter Island, popularized recently by the one in the Night At The Museum films with the chewing gum obsession.
While the carving I found nowhere claimed to be Jesus, it certainly made me think of him, because, remember kids, without Easter, there can be no Easter Island!
And if you can give me an explanation of what that's supposed to mean, you win the gold star (sticker).
