A Funny Joke
Posted: Wed Oct 20, 2004 11:18 am
A curious fellow died one day and found himself waiting in the long
line of souls waiting for judgment. As he stood there he noticed that
some souls were allowed to march right through the pearly gates into
Heaven. Others, though, were led over to the Devil who threw them into
a burning pit. But every so often, instead of hurling a poor soul into
the fire, Satan would toss a soul off to one side into a small pile.
After watching Satan do this several times, the fellow's curiosity got
the best of him. So he strolled over and asked Satan what he was
doing. "Excuse me, Prince of Darkness," he said. "I'm waiting in line
for judgment, but I couldn't help wondering 'Why are you tossing those
people aside instead of flinging them into the Fires of Hell with the
others?"
"Ah, those. . ." Satan said with a groan. "They're all from
Florida. They're still too wet to burn."
