The Three Ministers

Three ministers and their wives were traveling on a mountain road to a weekend retreat. The car had a blowout and fell into a canyon, resulting in the death of all aboard.

The next thing they know the three couples are before Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates.

The first minister walks up to Saint Peter and says, “I’m Reverend Bill, and I’ve been a minister for 20 years.”

Saint Peter looks in his book and says, “Reverend Bill, we know about you. Your mortal sin was gluttony. All you ever thought about was food. You’re the only reverend on record to preach with a sandwich in one hand and a hotdog in the other. Why you thought about food so much, you even married a woman named Peaches. I’m sorry but there is no place in Heaven for you.”

The second minister walks up to Saint Peter and says, “I’m Reverend Bob, and I’ve been a minister for 25 years.”

Saint Peter looks in his book and says, “Reverend Bob, we know about you. Your mortal sin was avarice. All you ever thought about was money. You’re the only reverend on record to pass the collection plate four times in one service. Why you thought about money so much, you even married a woman named Penny. I’m sorry but there is no place in Heaven for you.”

Upon seeing what transpired to the previous two ministers, the third turns to his wife and says, “Well Fanny, I guess we best get going.”

Best Regards

Three men were on a business trip and decided to add an extra couple of days to go skiing. One was with marketing, one was in engineering, and the other was a software developer.

As they were living the ski resort the brakes on the car failed. The driver managed to get the car under control and plow into a snow bank on the side of the road without hurting anyone. The three men got out of the car and started looking at it.

The marketing guy said, "You know what, we could sell this as a thrill ride. That brake failure is a feature that will make us a bunch of money."

The engineer says, "I think I know what's wrong. If anyone has a safety pin I can get these brakes working again and get us down the mountain."

The software developer says, "I think that before you do anything we should push this thing back up the mountain and see if it happens again."

Shalom.
