When the husband finally died his wife put the usual death notice in the
paper, but added that he died of gonorrhea.
No sooner were the papers delivered when a friend of the family phoned and
complained bitterly, "You know very well that he died of diarrhea, not
gonorrhea." Replied the widow, "I nursed him night and day so of course I know
he died of diarrhea, but I thought it would be better for posterity to
remember him as a great lover rather than the big shit he always was."
