The Burial - Humor

Ramsingh and Dolly were married for many years even
though they hated each other. When they had a
confrontation, screaming and yelling could be heard
late into the night.

The old man would shout, "When I dead, so help meh, I
go dig meh way up and outa de grave and come back
and haunt you for de ress a yuh life!"

Neighbors feared him. They believed he practiced some
kinda obeah because of the many strange occurrences
that took place in their neighborhood.

Ramsingh liked the fact that he was feared. To everyone's
relief, he died of a heart attack. Dolly had a closed casket
at the wake.

After the burial she went straight to the beer garden and
began to party as if there was no tomorrow. Her neighbors,
concerned for her safety asked, "Dolly, gyal you aint fraid
Ramsingh gon dig e way up and outa de grave and come
back to haunt you for the rest a yuh life?"

Dolly put down the Carib and said, "Yuh tink I chupid or
what? Leh him dig nuh....ah bury he rass upside down!
