Last


A bus carrying only ugly people
crashes into an oncoming truck,
and everyone inside dies.

As they stand at the Pearly Gates
waiting to enter Paradise
and meet their Maker,
God decides to grant each person
any one wish
because of the grief they have experienced.

They're all lined up,
and God asks the first one what his wish is.
"I want to be gorgeous."
So God snaps His fingers,
and it is done.

The second one in line hears this and says,
"I want to be gorgeous too."
Another snap of His fingers and the wish is granted.

This goes on for a while with each one asking
to be gorgeous.
But when God is halfway down the line,
the last guy in the line starts laughing.
When there are only ten people left,
this guy is rolling on the floor,
laughing his head off.

Finally, God reaches this last guy
and asks him what his wish will be.
The guy eventually calms down and says,
"Make 'em all ugly again."

>Next time you're last in line...be happy.

("The first shall be last, and the last shall be first." -- Mark 10.31)
