Strange


A lawyer named Strange died, and his friend asked the tombstone
maker to inscribe on his tombstone, "Here lies Strange, an honest
man, and a lawyer."


The inscriber insisted that such an inscription would be
confusing, for passersby would tend to think that three men were
buried under the stone.


However he suggested an alternative: He would inscribe, "Here
lies a man who was both honest and a lawyer.


"That way, whenever anyone walked by the tombstone and read it,
they would be certain to remark: 'That's Strange!'"
