An old man and woman were married for years, even though they hated each
other. Everytime they had a confrontation, screaming and yelling could 
be heard deep into the night and morning. The old man used to shout, 
"And when I die, I will dig my way up and out of the grave and come back
to haunt you for the rest of your life!" 

Neighbours feared him. The old man liked the fact he was feared. 

To everyone's relief, he finally died of a heart attack when he was 68.

His wife had a closed casket at the wake. After the burial, she went 
straight down to the pub and began to party as if there was no tomorrow.

Her neighbours, concerned for her safety, asked," Aren't you the least 
bit afraid that he may indeed be able to dig his way out of the grave 
and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life?" 

The wife calmly put down her drink and said, "Let the old bastard dig,
for all I care! I had him buried upside down.
