On their way to get married, a young 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 shows up, they ask him. St. Peter says, "I don't know. This is the first time anyone has ever asked. Let me go find out," and he leaves.

The couple sat and waited for an answer...for a couple of months. While they waited, they discussed that IF they were allowed to get married in Heaven, SHOULD they get married, what with 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. "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 would take me to find a lawyer?"

One Friday afternoon the old judge looked at his docket and saw he had but one case left for the afternoon, a petty larceny. The defendant had invoked his right to trial by jury, but unfortunately no jury had been summoned.

The judge, a stickler for getting his cases tried in a timely manner, had the bailiff look out in the hall and pull in the first 12 people he saw to be the jury. All twelve happened to be lawyers just hanging around the courthouse shooting the bull, but the judge figured they would do.

The evidence was put on and it looked like a simple case. The jury got the case at 4:30pm, and the case was so clear, the judge figured he'd make his poker game at 6:00pm.

An hour later...nothing.

Two hours later...nothing.

9:00 pm, no verdict.

Still nothing at 11:00pm.

At 12:30 Saturday, morning, the judge, fed up with the delay called the jury back into the courtroom. Not hiding his frustration, he said:

"You've had the case for 8 hours and the evidence only took 2 hours, don't you have a verdict yet?"

One lawyer piped up:

"Verdict? heck, we haven't even finished the campaigning for jury foreman yet!"
 
D'oh! lol
