Funny story: several years ago Colorado and Texas were in one of their recurring legal battles over water rights (I think it was the Canadian River). The Colorado governor at the time was on a talk radio show and told this joke live, over the air: How do you bury someone from Texas? Give them an enema and use a shoebox.

Ah, the glory days before social media.
