Tell Him to Go to Hell
A New York City divorce lawyer died and came before St.peter.
"What exactly have you done to earn eternal happiness?" St.Peter said.
The lawyer recalled that he had given a bum on the street a quarter just the other day. St.peter, nodding grimly, looked over to his assistant Gabriel and asked, "Is that in the records?"
Gabriel nodded, but St.Peter told the lawyer it wasn't enough.
"Wait, wait,there's more," said the lawyer. He told of tripping over a homeless boy the week before and giving the lad a quarter. Gabriel checked the records and confirmed the man's story.
St.Peter contemplated and then asked Gabriel, "What should we do?"
Gabriel glanced at the lawyer disgustedly and said, "I say we give him back his half a buck and tell him to go to hell."
