"Here Lies Strange" joke

When a lawyer named Strange died, his family asked the tombstone maker to inscribe the words, "Here lies Strange, a lawyer and an honest man" on his stone. Insisting that such an inscription would be confusing, for passersby would think that three men were buried in the same plot, the inscriber suggested an alternative. His suggestion was to inscribe the words, "Here lies a man who was both a lawyer and honest."
That way, anyone who walked by and read the inscription would be sure to remark "That's Strange."
