| Merit
A man arrives at the Pearly Gates
seeking admission.
Have you ever done anything of
particular merit?" St. Peter asked.
"Well! I can think of one thing,"
the man offered.
"Once, on a trip to the Black Hills
out in South Dakota, I came upon
a gang of high-testosterone bikers,
who were threatening a young woman.
I directed them to leave her alone but
they wouldn't listen. So, I approached
the largest and most heavily tattooed
biker and smacked him on the head,
kicked his bike over, ripped out his
nose ring and threw it on the
ground."
I yelled, "Now, back off biker boy or
you'll answer to me!"
St. Peter was very impressed!
"When did this happen?"
"About five minutes ago." |
