Unable to attend the funeral after his father died, a son who lived far away
called his brother and told him, “Do something nice for Dad and send me the
bill.”

Later, he got a bill for $200.00, which he paid. The next month, he got
another bill for $200.00, which he also paid, figuring it was some incidental
expense.

Bills for $200.00 kept arriving every month, and finally the man called his
brother again to find out what was going on.

“Well,” said the other brother, “you said to do something nice for Dad. So I
rented him a tuxedo.”
