Subject: Old Couple

    This 85 year old couple, having been married almost 60 years, had died in a car crash. They had been in good health the last ten years, mainly due to "her" interest in health food, and exercise.
    When they reached the pearly gates, St. Peter took them to their mansion which was decked out with a beautiful kitchen and master bath suite and Jacuzzi. As they "oohed and aahed" the old man asked:
    Peter, how much is all this was going to cost?
    "It's free," Peter replied, "this is Heaven."
    Next they went out back to see the championship golf course that the home backed up to.
    They would have golfing privileges everyday and each week the course changed to a new one representing all the great golf courses on earth.
    The old man asked, "What are the green fees?"
    Peter's reply, "This is heaven, you play for free."
    Next they went to the club house and saw the lavish buffet lunch with the all the cuisine's of the world laid out. "How much to eat?" asked the old man.
    "Don't you understand yet? This is heaven, it is free!" Peter replied.
    "Well, where are the low fat and low cholesterol foods?" the old man asked timidly.
     "That's the best part … you can eat as much as you like of whatever you like and you never get fat and you never get sick. This is Heaven."
    The old man looked at his wife and said, "You and your bran muffins!! I could have been here ten years ago!"
