On his way back from work, a driver came upon a horrible wreck in which one
car looked exactly like his neighbor's. Stopping hurriedly on the side of
the road, he ran toward the smoldering debris.
"Listen, mister," a policeman said, holding him back, "I can't let
you come any closer."
"But that may be my friend, Henry, in there," the anguished man
explained.
"OK, but it's pretty grisly," the cop cautioned. "There was a
decapitation."
The policeman reached into the back seat of the demolished car and
pulled forth the head, holding it at arm's length. "Is this your friend?"
"That's not him -- thank heavens," the man said. "Henry's much
taller."
