is a preacher. St. Peter looks him up in his Big Book,
furrows his brow and says, “OK, we’ll let you in, but
take that cloth robe and wooden staff.”
The preacher is shocked and replies, “But I am a man of
the cloth. You gave that cab driver a gold staff and a
silk robe. Surely I rate higher than a cabbie!“
St. Peter responds matter-of-factly, “This is Heaven and up
here, we are interested in results. When you preached, people
slept. When the cabbie drove his taxi, people prayed.”
