Too funny!
Forrest Gump dies and goes to Heaven. He is at the Pearly Gates, met by St.
Peter himself. However, the gates are closed, and Forrest approaches the
Gatekeeper.
St. Peter says, "Well, Forrest, it's certainly good to see you. We have
heard a lot about you. I must tell you, though, that the place is filling up
fast, and we've been administering an entrance examination for everyone. The
test is short, but you have to pass it before you can get into Heaven."
Forrest responds, "It shor is good to be here, St. Peter, sir. But nobody
ever tolt me about any entrance exam. Shor hope the test ain't too
hard--life was a big enough test as it was." St. Peter goes on, "Yes, I
know, Forrest, but the test is only three questions.
First: What two days of the week begin with the letter T?
Second: How many seconds are there in a year?
Third: What is God's first name?"
Forrest leaves to think the questions over. He returns the next day and sees
St. Peter, who waves him up and says, "Now that you have had a chance to
think the questions over, tell me your answers."
Forrest says, "Well, the first one -- which two days in the week begin with
the letter "T"? Shucks, that one's easy. That'd be Today and Tomorrow. The
Saint's eyes open wide and he exclaims, "Forrest, that's not what I was
thinking, but you do have a point, and I guess I didn't specify, so I'll
give you credit for that answer.
How about the next one?" asks St. Peter. "How many seconds in a year?"
"Now that one's harder," says Forrest, "but I thunk and thunk about that and
I guess the only answer can be twelve." Astounded, St. Peter says, "Twelve?
Twelve!? Forrest, how in Heaven's name could you come up with twelve seconds
in a year?" Forrest says "Shucks, there's gotta be twelve: January 2nd,
February 2nd, March 2nd. . .." "Hold it," interrupts St. Peter. "I see
where you're going with this, and I see your point, though that wasn't quite
what I had in mind.....but I'll have to give you credit for that one, too.
Let's go on with the third and final question. Can you tell me God's first
name"?
"Sure", Forrest replied, "it's Andy." "Andy?!" exclaimed an exasperated and
frustrated St. Peter. "Ok, I can understand how you came up with your
answers to my first two questions, but just how in the world did you come up
with the name Andy as the first name of God?" "Shucks, that was the easiest
one of all," Forrest replied. "I learnt it from the song. . ."ANDY WALKS
WITH ME, ANDY TALKS WITH ME, ANDY TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN. . . "
St. Peter opened the Pearly Gates and said: "Run Forrest, run."
