A man was praying to god.
He said, "God?"
God responded, "Yes?"
And the Guy said, "Can I ask a question?"
"Go right ahead", God said.
"God, what is a million years to you?"
God said, "A million years to me is only a second."
The man wondered.
Then he asked, "God, what is a million dollars worth to you?"
God said, "A million dollars to me is a penny."
So the man said, "God can I have a penny?"
And God cheerfully said,
"Sure!....... just a second."

A good epitaph is considered to be one that is memorable, or at least makes one think… but the next 10 epitaphs are going to make you wanna die… laughing! They decided to have one last laugh. Never knew cemeteries could be so funny!
This stone is located in the Notre-Dame-des-Neiges Cemetery, Montreal. Who penned this unusual epitaph and why is not known. But the Montreal Mirror found the man who engraved the headstone, but were only able to determine that the guy’s (who’s burried) ex-wife and mistress came in together and ordered the stone. They said that it was a thing between the three of them. So think twice before you cheat your wife! (Note: this story was confirmed by snopes)
So simple and yet so telling…
Yes, it’s an actual tombstone for a CCNA who died from a virus attack
