Three Gentlemen
There were three gentlemen waiting at the pearly gates. St. Peter
comes out and says, "I've got some disappointing news for two of you.
We are having some problems in our admissions area. I can only let one
of you come into heaven today.
I can get the other two tomorrow, but only one today." St. Peter
continued to explain, "The person who can tell the best story how they
died will be the one who comes in to heaven today."
The gentlemen thought this was fair. The first man stood up to St.
Peter and began: "I knew my wife was cheating on me, I rushed home to
our apartment from work, flew open the door and there she was, lying on
the couch, naked. I knew I caught her! I ran all through the apartment.
Upstairs, downstairs, under the bed, in the closets, NOTHING!
I was just about to apologise to her when I heard a SCRATCH, SCRATCH,
SCRATCH at the window. I opened the window and there he was, hanging
from the windowsill. I grabbed a skillet and banged him on the head. I
watched him fall down down, but he landed in some bushes.
I was still flaming with adrenaline! I edged our refrigerator over
to the window and it was just beginning to fall on him when I noticed my
coat was hooked to the fridge. So down I fall to my death."
St. Peter couldn't help but be shocked! He said, "That was a great
story! You are sure to be the winner today."
The next man steps up and says, "Well, I was a window washerman. I
was doing my job one afternoon when all of a sudden the ropes broke and
I'm falling to my death. I had my arms raised up to God praying to
catch me. At one moment my hands caught a window ledge, I was SAVED!!
I was giving my thanks and
trying to get the people inside to open the window by scratching at the
glass when all of a sudden a crazy man opened the window and beaned me with a skillet.
Once again I was falling to my death. But once again, I was being
watched. I fell into a nice group of bushes. As I opened my eyes to
thank God, a refrigerator was screaming down at me. That is my story."
St. Peter was stunned. He looked at the last man and said, "You
better have a good story, because the last man had a doozy!"
The last man smiled and said, "OK, picture this, Naked, hiding in a
refrigerator..........."
