Baseball in Heaven

Two 90-year old guys, Leo and Frank, had been friends all of their lives. When it was clear that Leo was dying, Frank visited him every day.

One day Frank said, "Leo, we both loved playing baseball all our lives, and we played all through high school. Please do me one favor: when you get to heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's baseball there."

Leo looked up at Frank from his deathbed and said, "Frank you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favor for you."

Shortly after that, Leo passed away. A few nights later, Frank was awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him, "Frank.. Frank......"

"Who is it?" asked Frank sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"

"Leo-- it's me, Leo."

"You're not Leo, Leo just died."

"I'm telling you, it's me, Leo," insisted the voice.

"Leo!..Where are you?"

"In Heaven," replied Leo. "I have some really good news and a little bad news."

"Tell me the good news first," said Frank.

"The good news," Leo said, "is that there's baseball in heaven. Better yet, all of our old buddies who died before us are here too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always springtime, and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play baseball all we want, and we never get tired."

"That's fantastic," said Frank. "It's beyond my wildest dreams!"

" So what's the bad news?"



"You're pitching Tuesday." grin
 
A guy totaled his car on the way to work, got all banged up, made it to the job and found out he was fired. Took a cab home and the house was empty, everything gone. Was a note on the sink his wife had run off with a enemy of his. There was a church across the street he had never gone to. In desperation he crawled across the road, the door was open and he crawled down to the alter and poured his heart out. Why had all this bad stuff happened to him? The sky blackened, there was a loud clap of thunder and he heard a booming authoritative voice say,
You know, I don't know what it is, but there is just something about you that I don't like!

Folks down here say baseball is mentioned at the very first of the Bible. Genesis 1:1 ~ In the big inning............."

Gonna send this one out to my email list for their enjoyment !!
 
That was great. I suspected the punch line was going to be that Leo was going to say that he got the last spot on the team which would have given me a smile but not the laugh I got from the real punch line.

Now that right there is funny.........but certainly not laughing at the Holy Scriptures! :)

Hi,

I dunno... I think God has quite a sense of humor. If not, why would He have created people?

Booming voice from sky: "NOAH!"

Noah (perturbed at being interrupted while building his boat on the driveway): "What do you want now?"

Voice from sky: "How long can you tread water?"

Cosby may have lost favor in the interim, but that bit is still funny!
