a man's funeral

Subject: A Man's Funeral


A woman was leaving a convenience store with her morning coffee when
she
noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby
cemetery.
A long black hearse was followed by a second long black hearse about
50
feet apart. Behind the second hearse was a solitary woman walking a
pit
bull on a leash. Behind her, a short distance back, were about 200
women
walking single file. The woman couldn't stand her curiosity. She
respectfully approached the woman 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've
never
seen a funeral like this. Who's funeral is it?"

"My husband's."
"What happened to him?"
The woman replied, "My dog attacked and killed him."
She inquired further, "Well, who is in the second hearse?"
The woman answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help
my husband when the dog turned on her."

A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two
women......
Finally the inquiring lady asked, "Can I borrow the dog?"
The widow answered, "Get in line."
