LAUGH OUT LOUD

The couple was 85 years old and had been married for sixty years.
Though they were far from rich, they managed to get by because
they watched their pennies. Though not young, they were both
in very good health, largely due to the wife's insistence on healthy
foods and exercise for the last decade. One day, their good health
didn't help when they went on a rare vacation and their plane
crashed, sending them off to Heaven. They reached the pearly
gates and St. Pete escorted them inside. He took them to a
beautiful mansion, furnished in gold and fine silks, with a fully
stocked kitchen and a waterfall in the master bath. A maid
could be seen hanging their favorite clothes in the closet. They
gasped in astonishment when he said, "Welcome to Heaven.
This will be your home now." The old man asked St. Peter how
much all this was going to cost. "Why, nothing," St. Peter
replied, "remember this is your reward in Heaven." The old
man looked out the window and right there he saw a champion-
ship golf course, finer and more beautiful than any ever built
on Earth. "What are the green fees?" grumbled the old man.
"This is Heaven," St. Peter replied. "You can play for free,
every day." Next they went to the clubhouse and saw the
lavish lunch buffet, with every imaginable cuisine laid out
before them, from seafood to steaks to exotic deserts, and
free flowing beverages. "Don't even ask," said St. Peter to
the man. "this is Heaven, it is all free for you to enjoy." The
old man looked around and glanced nervously at his wife.
"Well, where are the low fat and low cholesterol foods, and
the decaffeinated tea?" he asked. "that's the best part,"
St. Peter replied. "You can eat and drink as much as you
like of whatever you like, and you will never get fat or sick.
This is Heaven!" The old man pushed, "No gym to work
out?" "Not unless you want to," was the answer. "No
testing my sugar or blood pressure or..." "Never again.
All you do here is enjoy yourself." The old man glared at
his wife and said, "You and our stupid bran muffins. We
could have been here ten years ago!"
