Joke
An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into mischief, finally asked him,
“How do you expect to get into heaven?
”The boy thought it over and said,
“Well, I’ll just run in and out and in and out and keep slamming the door until St. Peter says,
‘For Heaven’s sake, Jimmy, come in or stay out1’”
