The undertaker wants my business!

In recent months, I have received a lot of direct-mail from hearing aids merchants, but yesterday, signs of my decrepitude went one step farther as I received another solicitation that got my full attention.

It was from a nearby funeral home asking me to fill out a survey about my preferences about dying, my funeral budget, plus answering a bunch of questions to die for.

Of course if I filled the survey and gave all of my personal information to the undertaker, they'd send me in return a booklet called “Final Wishes Organizer” absolutely free.

I took a long, somber look at that piece of junk mail, thought for two brief seconds and muttered “Go to hell” as I crumpled it and threw it in my waste basket!
