Their Last Requests
Two convicted murderers, who were sentenced to die by lethal injection on the same day, were led to the room where they would meet their Maker. The last rites were performed by the priest, the formal speech was given by the warden and the final prayers were said by the participants. Turning to the first man to die, the warden solemnly asked, “Son, do you have any last request?”
“Yes sir, I do,” replied the condemned man. “I love dance music. Could you please play ‘The Macarena’ for me one last time?”
“Certainly,” replied the warden. He turned to the other man and asked, “Well, what about you, son? What is your final request?”
“Please, I beg you,” pleaded the second man. “Kill me first.”
