Title: REASONS FOR DYING
Date: Mon Aug 9 05:38:26 1999
Two men waiting at the Pearly Gates strike up a conversation.
"How'd you die?" the first man asks the second.
"I froze to death," says the second.
"That's awful," says the first man. "How does it feel to freeze to
death?"
"It's very uncomfortable at first," says the second man. "You get
the shakes, and you get pains in all your fingers and toes. But
eventually, it's a very calm way to go. You get numb and you
kind of drift off, as if your sleeping. How about you, how did you
die?"
"I had a heart attack," says the first man. "You see, I knew my wife was
cheating on me, so one day I showed up at home unexpectedly. I ran up to the
bedroom, and found her alone, knitting. I ran down to the basement, but no one
was hiding there, either. I ran up to the second floor, but no one was hiding
there either. I ran as fast as I could to the attic, and just as I got there,
I had a massive heart attack and died."
The second man shakes his head. "That's so ironic," he says.
"What do you mean?" asks the first man.
"If you had only stopped to look in the freezer, we'd both still be alive."
