Joke:

There was a young couple, very much in love, who the night before they 
were to be married, were both tragically killed in an automobile 
accident. They found themselves at the pearly gates of heaven being 
escorted in by St. Peter.
     After a couple of weeks in heaven, the prospective groom took St. 
Peter aside and said, "St. Peter, my fiancee and I are very happy to 
be in heaven but we miss very much the opportunity to have celebrated 
our wedding vows. Is it possible for people in heaven to get married?" 
          St. Peter looked at them solemnly and said, "I tell you 
what, wait five years and if you still want to get married, come back 
and we will talk about it again." 
          Well five years went by, and the couple still very much 
wanting to get married, came back. Again St. Peter said, "Please, you 
must wait another five years and then I will consider your request." 
          Finally, they come before the St. Peter the third time, ten 
years after their first request, and asked him again. This time he 
answered, "Yes, you may marry. This Saturday at 2:00 p.m., we will 
have a beautiful ceremony in the main chapel. The reception will be on 
me!" 
          The wedding went beautifully, all the guests thought the 
bride was beautiful. Moses brought some flowers from the Nile River 
Delta and Gandhi came wearing his finest hand-woven sari. But, you 
guessed it, the couple was married but a few weeks when they realized 
they had made a horrible mistake, they just couldn't stay married to 
one another. 
          So they made another appointment to see the Lord God 
Almighty, this time to ask if they could get a divorce in heaven. When 
the Lord heard their request, he looked at them and said, "Look, it 
took us ten years to find a minister up here in heaven; do you have 
any idea how long it'll take to find a lawyer?"


Rim shot!

I sent this one to my sister.  She's a lawyer and I'm a minister.
