The Cask of the Amontillado

I have managed to avoid this irritating story by Edgar Allan Poe since I was 14. However, since I have turned myself in and have become a student once again, this story returns as our first assignment. If you read the title quickly, you will suppose that it is about a dead armadillo, or an armadillo with a cast. It is neither. The title refers to a 126 gallon barrel of Amontillado wine. Amontillado wine is a medium sherry wine. I have just recalled that the first time I got drunk was on cream sherry wine and I was 14. Oh, my god! The plot thickens. Anyway, it is an awful story about a resentful man who gets one of his 'betters' drunk, lures him down to his cellar, and walls him up alive behind 12 tiers of stone and plaster. We all have gotten resentful before, so I got the first page of the story. After that it just gets darker and deeper and ends abruptly with Montresor plastering the poor unfortunate and plastered Forunato in his wine cellar forever. Haven't we heard this plot from Poe before? Yes, we have. Poe, often drunk, probably forgot. Moral to the story...it's your turn to find one and post it here.
