Three nuns died in a car accident.
On their way to Heaven, they see St. Peter. St. Peter says, "Ok, before you get to Heaven, you each have to answer one question."
"Ok," say the nuns.
So the first nun comes up.
St. Peter: "Who was the first man?"
Nun #1: "Adam."
{The gates of Heaven open and you hear the angels singing, "La-la-la-la-la..." as the nun goes in.}
Nun #2 comes up.
St. Peter: "Who was the first woman?"
Nun #2: "Eve."
{The gates of Heaven open up and you hear the angels singing, "La-la-la-la-la..." as the nun goes in.}
Nun #3 comes up:
St. Peter: "What was the first thing Eve said to Adam?"
The nun puts her finger on her chin, thinking hard. Finally she says, "Gee, that's a hard one."
The gates of Heaven open up: {"La-la-la-la-la...."}

No nuns were hurt during the telling of this joke.
And the car was fully recycled.

Salma, I can't believe you don't get it. Errr...ok, I'll explain it. You see, when the nun said, "Gee, that's a hard one," she wasn't answering. She was just saying that was a hard question. But the gates opened anyway because that happened to be the correct answer to St. Peter's question: You see, when Adam first saw Eve, he got a hard-on (an erection). So the first thing Eve said to Adam was, "Gee, that's a hard one" (Adam's penis.) Can I ask, is it a cultural thing? I noticed a lot of my Japanese friends did not understand Japanese jokes. They understood the English; they just couldn't put two-and-two together to understand the joke. I tried to explain that in American (or English) jokes, a lot of things are inferred; the reader (or listener) has to fill in the blanks to "get" the joke. A Filipina friend was like that too. Everybuddy would laugh at the punchline, and she'd laugh too...then she would ask, "So what happened to the dog?" Where are you from? Just curious. Cheers!

Oops. I meant, "a lot of my Japanese friends did not understand American jokes."
