old couple

An old man and woman were married for many years, even though they hated
each other. When they had a confrontation, screaming and yelling could be
heard deep into the night.
The old man would shout, "When I die, I will dig my way up and out of the
grave and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!"

Neighbours feared him. They believed he practised black magic because of
the many strange occurrences that took place in their neighbourhood.

The old man liked the fact that he was feared.. To everyone's relief, he
died of a heart attack when he was 68.

His wife had a closed casket at the wake. After the burial, she went
straight to the local bar and began to party as if there was no tomorrow.
Her neighbours, concerned for her safety, asked, "Aren't you afraid that
he may indeed be able to dig his way up and out of the grave and come back
to haunt you for the rest of your life?"

The wife put down her drink and said, "Let him dig. I had him buried
upside down......."
