Funny Poop
Joe passed away. His will provided $30,000 for an elaborate
funeral. As the last guests departed the
affair, his wife, Helen, turned to her oldest friend. "Well, I'm sure Joe
would be pleased," she said.
"I'm sure you're right," replied Jody, who lowered her voice and
leaned in close. "How much did this
really cost?"
"All of it," said Helen. "Thirty
thousand."
"No!" Jody exclaimed. "I mean, it was very
nice, but $30,000?"
Helen answered. "The funeral was $6,500. I donated $500 to the church. The wake, food and drinks were another $500.
The rest went for the memorial stone."
Jody computed quickly. "$22,500 for a memorial stone? My
God, how big is it?!"
"Two and a half carats."
