Two fellows grew up in the mountains, and when they were grown, one of them said
he
was going up North to seek his fortune. The other one said he'd stay home and
look after
the farm and their parents. The one up North became a salesman, soon was sales
manager, and then vice president and president of the company. Before long, his
business
was bought out by a big company out West. In a little while, he became president
of the
parent company.
One day he got a call from his brother on the farm, who said, “Daddy died, and
the
funeral is Friday.”
He said, “Oh, my goodness. I have to leave Thursday for a big merger meeting in
Japan. I
just can't come, but I want you to give Daddy the best funeral you can get and
send the
bill to me. It's the least I can do.”
Well, the brother did that, and in a few weeks, the successful brother received
a bill for
$6,000, and he paid it. The following month, a bill for $100 came. Thinking they
had
forgotten something, he paid it. The next month, another bill for $100 came, and
he paid
that one, too. When another $100 bill arrived the third month, he called his
brother and
asked why he was getting these bills.
“Oh, yes,” the brother said, “I think I know. See, when we got Daddy all dressed
up in his
old serge suit in that new casket with that polished wood and satin lining, he
just didn't
look right, and since you said you wanted the best, we rented him a tuxedo.”
