GET EVEN
Along the theme of “Don’t get mad, get even” is the story about the fellow who died and his widow expected to receive all his wealth. She gave him a nice funeral and an expensive headstone, only to find out when the will was read that he had left everything except $5 to his secretary. Naturally, the wife was furious and drove to the tombstone establishment and ordered the inscription on her husband’s monument changed. The engraver (or chiseler) said “I’m sorry, ma’am. You told me to inscribe ‘Rest In Peace’ on the stone and that’s what I did. I can’t change it now, unless you want to buy a new stone.” She thought for a moment. She certainly didn’t want to spend any more of her money, so she said, “Right after ‘Rest In Peace’ I want you to chisel in the words — ‘Till We Meet Again.'”
