The loving husband and the Holy Land

A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation to Jerusalem. While they were there, the wife passed away. The undertaker told the husband, "You can have her shipped home for $5,000, or you can bury her here, in the Holy Land, for $150." The man thought about it and told him he would just have her shipped home.

The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend $5,000 to ship your wife home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $150?"

The man replied, "Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. I just can't take that chance."

Good one. Have you guys seen that video clip (some sort of ad) in which the man is whistling a melancholy tune for his dying wife? She slips away, the doc checks for pulse and sadly shakes his head. Instantly, the hubby's tune is a snappy refrain as he hops up and dances over. He yanks her ring off and doodle-bug's out of the room, whistling happily all of the time. The doc sits in stupefied silence.
