Heavenly Arrivals

"Globalization"

Question: What is the truest definition
of Globalization?

Answer: Princess Diana's death.

Question: How come?

Answer: An English princess

with an Egyptian boyfriend

crashes in a French tunnel,

driving a German car

with a Dutch engine,

driven by a Belgian who was drunk

on Scottish whisky, (check the bottle before you
change the spelling)

followed closely by Italian Paparazzi,

on Japanese motorcycles;

treated by an American doctor,

using Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by an American,

using Bill Gates's technology,

and you're probably reading this on your computer,

that use Taiwanese chips,

and a Korean monitor,

assembled by Bangladesh workers

in a Singapore plant,

transported by Indian lorry-drivers,

hijacked by Indonesians,

unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen,

and trucked to you by Mexican illegals.....

That, my friends, is Globalization.

"Heavenly Arrivals"

A man arrives at the gates of heaven.

St. Peter asks, "Religion?"

The man says, "Methodist."

St. Peter looks down his list, and says, "Go to room
24, but be very quiet as you pass room 8."

Another man arrives at the gates of heaven.

"Religion?"

"Islam."

"Go to room 18, but be very quiet as you pass
room 8."

A third man arrives at the gates. "Religion?"

"Jewish."

"Go to room 11, but be very quiet as you pass
room 8."

Finally, a woman arrives at the entrance to heaven.

"Religion?"

"Bahá'í."

"Go to room 9, but be very, very quiet as you pass
room 8."

The woman says, "I can understand there being different
rooms for different religions, but why must I be quiet when
I pass room 8?"

St. Peter answers her, "Well, all of the Southern Baptists
are in room 8, and they think that they're the only ones
here."
