    Funeral Procession


    A man was leaving a convenience store with his
    morning coffee when he noticed a most unusual
    funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery.

    A long black hearse was followed by a second long
    black hearse 50 feet behind the first one. Behind
    the second hearse was a solitary man walking a
    pit bull on a leash.

    Behind him, a short distance back, were about 200
    men walking single file.


    The man was so curious that he respectfully
    approached the man walking the dog and said, "I am
    so sorry for your loss, and I know now is a bad time to disturb you, but I have never seen a funeral like this.

    Whose funeral is it?"

    "My wife's."

    "What happened to her?"


    The man replied, "My dog attacked and killed her."

    He inquired further, "Well, who is in the second hearse?"

    The man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her."

    A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed
    between the two men.


    "Can I borrow the dog?"

    "Get in line."
