Blonde Mortician
A man who just died is delivered to a local mortuary
wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit.
The female blonde mortician asks the deceased's wife how
She would like the body dressed. She points out that the
man does look 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 the blonde mortician 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 wake. To her
delight, she finds her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue
suit with a subtl e chalk stripe; the suit fits him
perfectly.
She says to the mortician, 'Whatever this cost, I'm very
satisfied. You did an excellent job and I' m very grateful.
How much did you spend?' To her astonishment, the
blonde mortician presents her with the blank check.
'There's no charge,' she says.
'No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that
exquisite blue suit!' she says.
'Honestly, ma'am,' the blonde says, 'it cost nothing. You
see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was
brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was
wearing an attractive blue suit . I asked his wife 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.'

I'll have to pass it on.
