A man who just died is delivered to a Louisiana mortuary wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit.
Boudreaux the mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like the body dressed. He points out that the man does look very good in the black suit he is already wearing.

To her astonishment, Boudreaux presents her with the blank check.
"Dere's no charge," he says.
"No, really, I must pay you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!" She says.
"Honestly, ma'am," Boudreaux says, "it didn't cost me a ting. You see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his missus if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked nice."
"So, I just switched the heads."
