  葬礼前,寡妇看了一眼她亲爱的丈夫。她惊恐地发现,丈夫穿着他棕色的西装。她事先特地要求穿寿衣的人给他穿上蓝色的西装。那是她特意为他做的。但令她惊奇的是,穿寿衣的人仍然给他穿着他被雷电击中时穿的棕色西装。

   She demanded that the corpse be changed into the blue suit she'd brought especially for that purpose. The undertaker said, "But madam! It's only a minute or two until the funeral is scheduled to begin! We can't possibly take him out and get him changed in that amount of time."

  她要求将遗体换成她特地准备的蓝色西装。穿寿衣的人说:"可是女士,只有一二分钟的时间,葬礼就要开始了。我偿不可能在这一二分钟的时间内将他弄出来换衣服。"

   The lady said, "Who's paying for this?"

  这位女士说,"你们还想不想要钱?"

   Seeing the logic to this argument, a very reluctant mortician wheeled the coffin out, but then wheeled it right back in a moment later. Miraculously, the corpse was in a blue suit.

  明白了这女士的意思,穿寿衣的人很勉强地转动轮子将棺材升了起来。很快,棺材就滑了回来。真神奇,遗体已经换成了兰色的西装。

   After the ceremony, a well-satisfied widow complimented the undertaker on the smooth and speedy service. She especially wanted to know how he'd been able to get her husband into a blue suit so fast.

  遗体告别仪式后,那位称心如意的寡妇称赞穿寿衣的人快速而圆满地完成了任务。她特别想知道,他怎么这么快就将她丈夫换成了兰色西装。

  负责葬礼的人说,"噢,那很容易。碰巧在后面有个遗体穿着兰色西装。我们只是换了一下头而已。"
