Years ago, when I lived in town, I tore down an old decrepid building on a lot next to our house. It looked like the perfect place for a garden, so I hired an old neighbor to plow it up for me. About where the old building was located, he hooked his plow on something and it made his old Fergy scratch and snort. I decided to dig up what I thought was a piece of the old building foundation. It turned out to be a beautiful old tombstone. It was perfectly inscribed "Harvey W. Johnson" and the date of death was around 1893. I don't know who Harvey was, but my son now owns that property, and Harvey's stone still stands in his memory.
Being the skinflint that I am, I told my wife that I was going to change my name to Harvey W. Johnson and she wouldn't have to shell out for a tombstone for me. The little details about dying in 1893 surely wouldn't matter to most folks. . .
