I also wish to say that everyone who subscibes to net.jokes should read net.jokes.d as well. A man's father died. The body was kept, as was custom, in the man's house until the funeral was held. Before that happened, though, the man's best friend invited him down to the local pub. The man said, "I can't! I have to keep watch over my father's body!" To which the response came, "Well, bring him with us! The pub'll be crowded, we'll order three drinks at a time, and we'll alternate taking the third drink between us." The man eventually agreed, so they went down. After an hour or so, the two men were both roaring drunk (the father was very good at holding his liquor, so didn't seem drunk at all). One said, "I'm going to the Little Boy's Room". The other went with him. While they were away, the pub tender came over and cleaned the table. In doing so, he knocked the dead man over. The two drunks came back to see the keeper standing over the corpse, feeling for a pulse. The keeper saw them and cried out, "I wouldn't a touched him, but he drew a gun on me!"
