17. Reminds me of a Pancho Villa story:
a tourist in the 1930s in a small northern Mexican village saw a market stand with an array of human skulls. Thinking that it would make an interesting thing to have (likely being a former member of Skull & Bones Society), he asked the price. "Five-hundred pesos, senor." "What?" the tourist demanded, "why should an old skull be that expensive?" "Because it's the skull of Pancho Villa, senor." "Ok, then what about this little one?" "Four hundred pesos, senor." "Well whose is this that it's so expensive?" "Pancho Villa, senor." "What, you said that the big one was Pancho Villa?" "Yes, senor, but this one is Pancho Villa as a little boy."

Silly joke? Well, not nearly as silly as the stories told by the deathers.
