ARRIVING IN HEAVEN:
A newly arriving soul is facing St. Peter trying to explain the circumstances of his recent demise on earth. He recalls that his last day was not a good one. "I came home early and found my wife lying naked in bed. She claimed she had just gotten out of the shower. Well, her hair was dry and I checked the shower and it was completely dry too. I knew she was into some hanky-panky and I began to look for her lover.
"I went onto the balcony of our ninth floor apartment and found the SOB clinging to the rail by his fingertips. I was so angry that I began bashing his fingers with a flower pot. He let go and fell, but his fall was broken by some awnings and bushes. On seeing that he was still alive I found super human strength to drag our antique cedar chest to the balcony and throw it over. It hit the man and killed him. At this point the stress got to me and I suffered a massive heart attack and died."
St. Peter thanked him and sent him to the waiting room while he could determine his fate.
The second arrival said that his last day was his worst. "I was on the roof of an apartment building working on the AC equipment. I stumbled over my tools and toppled off the building. I managed to grab onto the balcony rail of a ninth floor apartment but some idiot came rushing out on the balcony and bashed my hands with a flower pot. I fell but hit some awnings and bushes and survived, but as I looked up I saw a huge chest falling toward me. I tried to crawl out of the way but failed and was hit and killed by the chest."
St. Peter empathized with his misfortune and directed him into the waiting room before passing on his admission into Heaven.
When the third new arrival of the day enters, St. Peter apologizes for the delay and says, "I doubt that your last day was as interesting as the two fellows that arrived here just before you."
"I don't know," replies the man. "Picture this, I'm buck naked hiding in this cedar chest..."
