at the pearly gates for admission to heaven. St. Peter
asked them to identify themselves.

One doctor stepped forward and said, "I was a pediatric
spine surgeon and helped kids overcome their deformities."
St. Peter said, "You may enter."

The second doctor said, "I was a psychiatrist. I helped

St. Peter invited him into heaven, too.

The third applicant stepped forward and said, "I was
an HMO manager. I helped people get cost-effective
health care." St. Peter said, "You can come in also."

But as the HMO manager walked by, St. Peter added,
"You may stay for three days. After that you will go to hell!"

Her answer: "Where did you get such white teeth?
