A lawyer named Strange was shopping for a tombstone. After he had
>X< made his selection, the stonecutter asked him what inscription he
(o o) would like on it. "Here lies an honest man and a lawyer," responded the
ooO--(_)--Ooo- 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'', if that would be okay."
"But that won't let people know who it is" protested the lawyer.
"Certainly will," retorted the stonecutter. "people will read it
and exclaim, "That's Strange!"
