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 behind the first one. 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.

Whose 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.

"Can I borrow the dog?"

"Get in line."
