A woman was leaving a 7-11 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. Behind the second hearse was a solitary
woman walking a pit bull dog on a leash.

Behind her were 200 women walking single file.

The woman couldn't stand the curiosity. She respectfully approached the
woman walking the dog and said, "I am so sorry for your loss, and I know
this is a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this.

Whose funeral is it?

The woman replied, "Well that first hearse is for my husband."

"What happened to him?"

"My dog attacked and killed him."

"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 passes between the two women.

"Can I borrow the dog?"
