A priest dies and is waiting in line at the Pearly Gates. Ahead of him
is a guy who's dressed in sunglasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket and
jeans.
Saint Peter addresses this cool guy, "Who are you, so that I may know
whether or not to admit you to the Kingdom of Heaven ?" The guy replies,
"I'm Peter Pilot, retired American Airlines Pilot from Dallas "Saint Peter
consults his list. He smiles and says to the pilot, "Take this silken robe
and golden staff and enter the Kingdom." The pilot goes into Heaven with
his robe and staff.
Next it's the priest's turn. He stands erect and booms out, "I am
Father Joe, pastor of Saint Mary's in Pasadena for the last 43 years."
Saint Peter consults his list. He says to the priest, "Take this cotton
robe and wooden staff and enter the Kingdom."
"Just a minute," says the good father, "that man was a pilot and he
gets a silken robe and golden staff, and I get only cotton and wood. How
can this be?" "Up here ... we go by results," says Saint Peter, "when you
preached - - people slept; when he flew - - people prayed."
