Aggie Mortician
A man who just died is delivered to a College Station mortuary wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit.
The Aggie mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like the body dressed. He points out that the man does look good in the black suit he is already wearing.
The widow, however, says that she always thought her husband looked his best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives the mortician a blank check and says, "I don't care what it costs, but please have my husband in a blue suit for the viewing."
The woman returns the next day for the wake. To her delight, she finds her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe; the suit fits him perfectly.
She says to the mortician, "Whatever this cost, I'm very satisfied. You did an excellent job and I'm very grateful. How much did you spend?"
To her astonishment, the Aggie presents her with the blank check.
"There's no charge," he says.
"No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!" she says.
"Honestly, ma'am," the mortician says, "it cost nothing. You see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his wife if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked nice."
"So I just switched the heads."

I can appreciate an Aggie Joke!
Thanks for remembering me!

Well,
It was practical...however, sometimes one should not tell everything that they know...
However, sometimes avoidable mistakes (http://www.americanpressinstitute.org/p ... ts_in_tra/) are made.
This (http://www.pjstar.com/stories/060306/NA ... .052.shtml) is what you can expect when you have amatures as coroners. :shakemitk
Just thank God that the body (or bodies) were not cremated. You know, they can just cremate an animal and sell the deceased corpse for whatever...
Now, do you want to discuss medical issues (http://www.crimelibrary.com/serial_kill ... vey/6.html) for a while?

You've probably heard about when they installed the first escalator at Texas A&M. The power went off one day, and fifteen students were stranded for an hour.
Or... about the five boys from A&M who went to New Orleans -- to visit the warehouses.
Of course there was the sticker many Texas A&M students placed on their cars: "Four years ago, I couldn't even spell Engineer. Now, I are one."
