New Arrivals
JOKE OF THE WEEK, 3 Nov 2014
Dietrich Fischer – TRANSCEND Media Service
A pope arrived at the gate of heaven.
St. Peter welcomed him and said, “Just put your luggage down and sit here on this bench. A bus comes every 15 minutes and will take you to the subway station. The subways run every 20 minutes and you can get off three stops after God’s palace. Your apartment will be just a short walk from there.”
The pope thanked St. Peter, sat down and waited. A few minutes later, someone else arrived.
St. Peter embraced him and exclaimed, “Dear friend, how wonderful to see you here! Come get into this limousine, it will take you directly to a penthouse overlooking God’s palace.”
The pope stood up and asked St. Peter, “How come this man gets a much better treatment than me?”
St. Peter answered, “Oh, you know, we have already 400 popes up here, but this is only our second lawyer!”
