The Tombstone
A lawyer named Impos Syble was shopping for a tombstone. After he had made his selection, the stonecutter asked him what inscription he would like on it.
- Here lies an honest man and a lawyer - responded the lawyer.
- Sorry, but I can't do that - replied the stonecutter. In this state, it's against the law to bury two people in the same grave. However, I could put 'here lies an honest lawyer'.
- But that won't let people know who it is! - protested the lawyer.
- Sure it will - retorted the stonecutter. People will read it and exclaim, 'That's impossible!'
