> The guy replies, "I'm Peter Pilot, retired Delta Airlines Pilot from
> Miami."
> Saint Peter consults his list. He smiles and says to the pilot, "Take this
> silken robe and golden staff and enter the Kingdom." The pilot goes
> into Heaven with his robe and staff.
> Next it's the minister's turn. He stands erect and booms out, "I am
> JosephSnow, pastor of Saint Mary's in Pasadena for the last 43 years."
> Saint Peter consults his list.
> He says to the minister, "Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and
