'The Obedient Wife'

There was a man who had worked all his life, had saved all of his money, and 
was a real miser when it came to his money.

Just before he died, he said to his wife...'When I die, I want you to take 
all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to 
the
afterlife with me.'

And so he got his wife to promise him, with all of her heart, that when he 
died, she would put all of the money into the casket with him.

Well, he died. He was stretched out in the casket, his wife was sitting 
there - dressed in black, and her friend was sitting next to her. When they 
finished
the ceremony, and just! before the undertakers got ready to close the 
casket, the wife said,

'Wait just a moment!'
She had a small metal box with her; she came over with the box and put it in 
the casket. Then the undertakers locked the casket down and they rolled it
away. So her friend said,

'Girl, I know you were not foolish enough to put all that money in there 
with your husband.'

The loyal wife replied, 'Listen, I'm ! a Christian; I cannot go back on my 
word. I promised him that I was going to put that money into the casket with
him.'

You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket with him!?!?!?'

'I sure did,' said the wife. 'I got it all together, put it into my account, 
and wrote him a cheque.... If he can cash it, then he can spend it.'

Send this to every clever female you know, and to every man who thinks they 
are smarter than women!!!

Merry Christmas
