I heard this one online:
Some General who was expected to run for President but died wanted to be buried in a plain pine box in Erie, Pa. But a few years later his son decided that he wanted his father in the family plot in Philly so he tried to figure out how to transport him. After a couple of weeks he decided that he would have someone cut his fathers body into pieces, boil the flesh and other stuff off, and take the bones to the family plot. The son left the boiled flesh in Erie, so now every year the General rises from his grave in Philly in search of his flesh in Erie.
