I have a good one for you too. When my mom was killed in a head on collision several years ago my brother, two sisters and I went to the funeral home to pick out a coffin. The attendant put us in a small room and put on a video of their line of coffins all at different price ranges. This is done before you actually go to the show room and look at the coffins.

The video was on and he had left the room for us four to be alone to watch. One of the coffins was guaranteed not to leak and to last for "life". I started laughing and couldn't stop and my brother and sisters looked at me like I was crazy. What's so funny , they asked. I said, gauranteed for whose life, Moms? ours, or the life of the coffin itself? I got them laughing too and when the attendant came back he was shocked to see us all laughing until we had tears in our eyes. He asked what was going on and we asked him whose life the coffins were guaranteed for. Then he started laughing with us. It made a hard chore turn out to be a fun thing.

That's a good one--no, wait, uh, yeah, it was. Isn't it funny about humor? For some reason that reminds of the joke about some guy going away for a vacation and leaving his cat for someone to take care of. He calls to check on the cat and the cat-sitter says, "Your cat is dead." He says, "That's a terrible way to tell me. You should have prepared me for it. You should have said that the cat was up on the roof but that you were trying to get it down. Then later you could have said that you hadn't gotten it down and it was getting weak from lack of food and water and finally tell me that it fell from the roof and died and I would have had time to get used to the shock. By the way, how's my mom?"

"Your mom's up on the roof."
