FUNERAL EXPENSES
President Obama goes on a State visit to Israel , and while he is on a
tour of Jerusalem he has a sudden, massive and fatal heart attack.
The undertakers get on a conference call to US State Department
diplomats. "You can have him shipped home for $1 million or you can bury
him here in the Holy Land for $100."
The diplomats put the undertakers on hold, go into a huddle and come
back to the undertaker and tell him they want Obama flown home.
The undertakers accept the decision but one is puzzled enough to ask:
"Why would you spend $1 million to get him home when it would be
wonderful to be buried here in this religious country and you would only
spend $100?"
After some hesitation one diplomat replied: "More than 2000 years ago
a man died there, was buried there and just 3 days later, he rose from
the dead. We simply can't take that risk."
