A Great Idea?

As we appraoch St. Valentine's Day, we consider ways of expressing affection for others. We see sales of roses and chocolates. So, while I have no one to give a present, I do have a brilliant idea for a gift. Now, this gift can only go to someone that really has a good sense of humor and lives a bit of a distance away.

Buy a box of chocolates and a teddy bear, nothing too fancy, but definitely nice. Now, open and eat most (half to three-quarters) of the box of chocolates, make sure to hold on to the plastic wrap. Smear some chocolate onto the muzzle of the bear and pack both chocolate and bear in a box (make sure the plastic wrap for the chocolates is included). Send to your Valentine. When they open the package, they'll find a half eaten box of chocolates with a bear having chocolate on its lips. This will lead to a "What the..." expression. When, they ask you about it, you get to respond, "That fucking bear, I knew I shouldn't have trusted him alone with all that chocolate."

This should lead to at least one person's total amusement. I know I'm amused. If you try it, tell me how it goes. I know I'll be doing it next year.
