Pearly Gates

It is said that St. Peter is the keeper of the keys and one needs to pass muster with him to gain entrance to Heaven. I heard he gives an oral test and one of the questions surrounds the feast of Easter. So witness the following scene as three deceased fellows arrive on the doorstep together:
P - so No. 1 what do you know about Easter?
No. 1 - Easter is when they have parades, wave flags and shoot off firecrackers.
P - sorry, pal - down you go. No. 2 what do you know about Easter?
No. 2 - Easter is when the man in the red suit comes down the chimney with gifts for the children.
P - Wrong - don't forget to pack your asbestos suit. No. 3 what about you?
No. 3 - having seen his friends rejected said - Easter is when they put Jesus on the cross - and then they laid him in the tomb - and on the third day he came out of the tomb - and saw his shadow and went back in the tomb and we had forty more days of winter.
P - using baseball parlance said - "Three up - three down."

So I was thinking Heaven might not be as crowded as we thought. And when it is my time to go, St. Peter will be a little older and I hope he doesn't change the questionaire. But he just might lower the bar so that even this rigid limbo dancer might sneak under and finally obtain that long sought after prize- a table by the window.
