Filling in for St. Peter
-
A famous professor of surgery died and went to heaven. At the pearly gate he was asked by the gatekeeper: 'Have you ever committed a sin you truly regret?' 'Yes,' the professor ansvered. 'When I was a young candidate at the hospital of Saint Lucas, we played soccer against at team from the Community Hospital, and I scored a goal, which was off-side. But the referee did not se it so, and the goal won us the match. I regret that now.' 'Well,' said the gatekeeper. 'That is a very minor sin. You may enter.' 'Thank you very much, Saint Peter,' the professor ansvered. 'I am not Saint Peter,' said the gatekeeper. 'He is having his lunchbreak. I am Saint Lucas.'
Regards, Satips.

It took me a couple re-reads myself. I think because, in part, I was reading very quickly and just assumed it was St. Peter at the pearly gates, so I "bleeped" over the actual name. [edit] something like that. Anything starting with St. or Saint I just bleeped over. Like Linus reading all those Russian names in that old Peanuts cartoon.[edit] Marc

:-D I am still the odd-man-out.... I caught the odd reference to "gatekeeper" so I was preparing for the punchline.... I chuckled almost immediately. But it is definately not a snort diet soda type joke.
