The wit of Bredan Byrne

Bredan Byrne was governor of New Jersey from 1973 to 1981.In my opinion,not a very good governor,indeed,he give us the state income tax.But all isn't dark with Byrne for had Irishmen's wit.
For Byrne said,"when he dies,he hopes to be buried in Hudson County this way he still be involved in politics."
Byrne trying to point out,of all people the dour Presbyterian Woodrow Wilson had sense of humor when he was governor of New Jersey(1910-1913).Byrne tells the story,Wilson received a phone call 3:00 A.M,the man calling him said Judge Smith has died.Wilson replyed,Oh very sorry to hear that,the man went on,I like to replace him.Wilson replyed it's ok with me,as long as,it's ok with the undertaker."
