A man was leaving his house one morning when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery.

A funeral coffin was followed by a second coffin some distance behind the first. Behind the second coffin was a solitary man walking with a large black dog.

Behind the man was a queue of about 100 men walking in single file. The man simply couldn't contain his curiosity, and he respectfully approached the man walking the dog:"I am so sorry for your loss, and I know now is a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this with so many of you walking in single file.

Whose funeral is it?"

The man replied, "Well, that first coffin is for my wife."

"What happened to her?" The man replied, "My dog attacked and killed her."

He inquired further, "Well, who is in the second coffin?"

The man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog attacked and killed her also."!

A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two men.

Then the first man asked in a hushed voice, "Can I borrow the dog?"

The man replied: "Join the queue"

Ariyaatha pillakku choriyumbol ariyum!

As a kid/teenager, my only source of information to learn malayalam was Manorama Publications' Balaram, a children's fortnightly and my granny. I still vividly remember how she used to teach me the basics of malayalam whenever I come to Kerala on vacations. My granny was also a great source of amazement for me as she used malaylam proverbs or the so called "pazham chollu" every now and then. These proverbs, though small in length and use, had deep insights! Though I can read/write Malayalam today, thx to Balarama and my granny, I used to miss her proverbs a lot. But not anymore!! Thanks to this Wikipedia link , forwarded to me by Vinay
