I may have told this one before, so excuse me if you've already heard it... but there was this woman who had no children but loved her two horses dearly. For some unexplained reason, both horses suddenly died on the same day. She was naturally very distraught as these horses were like family to her. She took both horses to a taxidermist and asked if they could be preserved in some manner. The taxidermist asked, "would you like to have them mounted?" The woman replied, "no, I think side-by-side would be just fine."
