Up In Heaven
A petty thief, a teacher and a lawyer die and go to heaven.
When they get there they are stopped by St. Peter, who then says:
- Sorry, heaven's crowding up, so you need to answer a question correctly, or else you can't get in.
He looks at the teacher, and asks her:
- What was the name of the famous ocean-liner that sank after hitting an iceberg?
- Oh, that's easy - the teacher replied - the Titanic.
So St. Peter let her into heaven.
Next he turned to the petty thief:
- How many people died on that ship? - St. Peter asked.
- Oooh, that's tough, but I saw the movie, and it was 1,500. St. Peter stepped away and the thief walked into heaven.
Finally, St. Peter turned to the lawyer.
He simply said to him:
- Name them.
