I am a: Quirky sysadmin. Geek. Gamer. Comic fangirl. My little space, my home on the interwebs. I blog about personal stuffs, work, various coding projects, and anything else I feel like.

Today’s funny bit was originally told by Lewis Grizzard. I first heard it on a “best of” tape that my mother had for years. He is easily one of my all-time favorite writers and I’ve always loved re-reading his works and copies of his old columns. So I chose one of my favorite jokes of his to share with you today. :cool:

Three ministers and their wives were on vacation, having a good time. All six were killed in a freak accident. They find themselves standing around in the clouds, outside the pearly gates with St. Peter standing in front.

The first minister and his wife walk up to St. Peter. St. Peter tells them “Well, you’re a great and giving man, and you spent your entire life worshiping the Lord and doing good deeds. But unfortunately, we can’t let you in. You see, you lusted in your heart for money. You never had none, but you lusted in your heart for it so much that you didn’t get married until you met a woman named Penny. So, I can’t let you in.”

The second minister and his wife walk up to St. Peter. St. Peter tells them “Well, you’re a great and giving man, and you spent your entire life worshiping the Lord and doing good deeds. But unfortunately, we can’t let you in. You see, you lusted in your heart for alcohol. You never drank none, but you lusted in your heart for it so much that you didn’t get married until you met a woman named Sherry. So, I can’t let you in.”

The third minister, hearing this, looks at his wife and says “Well hell, Fanny, we might as well go on then!”
