The Mortician
A man who just died is delivered to a Kentucky mortuary wearing
an expensive, expertly tailored black suit. Bubba the mortician asks the
deceased'* wife how she would like the body dressed. He points out that
the man does look very good in the black suit he is already wearing.
The widow however, says that she always thought her husband looked his
best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives Bubba a
blank check and says, "I don't care what it costs, but please have my
husband in a blue suit for the viewing."
The woman returns the next day for the viewing. To her delight she finds
her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe;
the suit fits him perfectly. She says to Bubba, "Whatever the cost, I'm
very satisfied. You did an excellent job and I'm very grateful. How much
did you spend?"
To her astonishment, Bubba presents her with the blank check. "Dere'* no
charge," he says.
"No, really, I must pay you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!"
she says.
"Honestly, ma'am," Bubba says, "it didn't cost me a dang ting. You see, a
deceased gentleman of about your husband'* size was brought in shortly
after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I
asked his missus if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black
suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked
nice."
"So, I just switched the heads"!
