| Leaving a cafe with his morning cup of coffee, a man notices an unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery. Moving up the street slowly is a black hearse, followed closely behind by a second black hearse. Behind this, with head bowed, walks a solitary man walking a pit bull on a leash. Behind him are about 200 men walking single file. Curiosity getting the better of him, the man respectfully approaches the man walking the dog. “I know this is a bad time,” he says to the mourner. “But I’ve never seen a funeral like this. Who’s passed away?” The bereaved looks up. “Well, that first hearse is for my wife.” “What happened to her?” the man asks. The funeral-goer looks down at his pitbull. “My dog attacked and killed her.” “Well, who is in the second hearse?” “My mother-in-law,” the man answers. “She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her.” There’s a moment of silence. “Could I borrow that dog?” says the first man, finally. The mourner looks at him. “Get in line.” |
