Milsurp After Hours

On their way to get married, a young Catholic couple is involved

in a fatal car accident. The couple find themselves sitting outside the

Pearly Gates waiting for St. Peter to process them into Heaven.

While waiting, they begin to wonder: Could they possibly get

married in Heaven?

When St. Peter showed up, they asked him. St. Peter says, "I don't

know. This is the first time anyone has asked. Let me go find out", and

he leaves. The couple sat and waited, and waited. Two months passed and the

couple are still waiting. As they waited, they discussed that IF they

were allowed to get married in Heaven, what was the eternal aspect of

it all.

"What if it doesn't work?" they wondered, "Are we stuck together

FOREVER?" After yet another month, St. Peter finally returns, looking

somewhat bedraggled. "Yes," he informs the couple, "you CAN get married in

Heaven." "Great!" said the couple, "But we were just wondering, what if

things don't work out? Could we also get a divorce in Heaven?"

St. Peter, red-faced with anger, slams his clipboard onto the

ground. "What's wrong?" asked the frightened couple.

"OH, COME ON!" St. Peter shouts, "It took me three months to find

a priest up here! Do you have ANY idea how long it'll take me to

find a LAWYER?!?
