(this was probably what happened to some of my ancestors.)

Two men were walking home after a party and decided to take a shortcut
through
the cemetery just for laughs. Right in the middle of the cemetery they
were
startled by a tap-tap-tapping noise coming from the misty shadows.
Trembling
with fear, they found an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping away
at one
of the headstones.

"Holy cow, Mister," one of them said after catching his breath, "You
scared us
half to death -- we thought you were a ghost! What are you doing working
here
so late at night?"

"Those fools!" the old man grumbled. "They misspelled my name!"

Sincerely,
Cathy Ailstock
