(Warning: Morbid dad joke) True Story -- My family were planning my mum's funeral. We always try to keep things light and try to stay positive, just as Mum would have it...

The funeral director was asking us what we think Mum should wear in her casket.

Mum always loved to wear sarongs (fabric wraps that go around the torso and drape downward a bit like a long skirt would), so my uncle suggested that she wear a sarong in there.

The funeral director looked a bit confused, as did some of our family members, to which my uncle added:

"What's sarong with that?"

I started laughing like an idiot. He was proud of it too. The funeral director was rather shocked. We assured her, and our more proper relatives, that Mum would've absolutely loved the joke (which is very true).

His delivery was perfect. I'll never forget the risk he took. We sometimes recall the moment as a way help cushion the blows of the grieving process.

--Edit-- I appreciate the condolences. I'm doing well and the worst is behind me and my family. But thanks :)

--Edit-- Massive thanks for all the awards and kind words. And the puns! Love 'em.

Planning ahead

I asked my dad one time why he went to all these funerals and memorial services even for people he didn’t know. He looked at me with a very serious look on his face, and he said β€œif you don’t go to their memorial services then they won’t come to yours. β€œ

Apparently, the producers of The Flintstones were planning to make one final episode where Fred’s brother marries Barney’s brother.

It was cancelled because it was the 60s and Americans weren’t yet ready to have a gay old time.
