A woman arrived at the Gates of Heaven. While she was
waiting for Saint Peter to greet her, she peeked
through the gates. She saw a beautiful banquet table.
Sitting all around were her parents and
all the other people she had loved and who had died
before her. They saw her and began calling greetings
to her "Hello - How are you! We've been waiting
for you! Good to see you."
When Saint Peter came by, the woman said to him,
"This is such a wonderful place! How do I get in?"
"You have to spell a word," Saint Peter
told her. "Which word?" the woman asked.
"Love." The woman correctly spelled "Love" and Saint
Peter welcomed her into Heaven.
About a year later, Saint Peter came to the woman and
asked her to watch the Gates of Heaven for him that
day. While the woman was guarding the Gates of
Heaven, her husband arrived. "I'm surprised to see
you," the woman said. "How have you been?"
"Oh, I've been doing pretty well since you died," her
husband told her. "I married the beautiful young nurse
who took care of you while you were ill. And
then I won the multi-state lottery. I sold the little
house you and I lived in and bought a huge mansion.
And my wife and I travelled all around
the world. We were on vacation in Cancun and I went
water skiing today. I fell and hit my head, and here I
am. What a bummer! How do I get in?"
"You have to spell a word," the woman told him.
"Which word?" her husband asked.
"Czechoslovakia."
