IJMC - Talk About Your Tall Tales!

But hey, the first line starts out with, "I dreamt." What more do you 
need to provide a basis for a cute joke? Well, the joke helps, but, then, 
I like most everything. :)                                          -dave








 I dreamt I died and went to heaven. There at the Pearly gates was St.
Peter welcoming everyone as they approached.  He would ask them their
earthly occupation and inquire about their family. This procedure
continued for a considerable time until St Peter began that familiar
wriggle that indicated the need for a visit to the rest room. He looked
frantically around for someone to take his place and then saw Jesus Christ
nearby. St. Peter gestured urgently and Jesus came over and immediately
recognized the need. Jesus began where St Peter had left asking the same
questions about occupations and families. 

 An elderly grandfather type came to the head of the line, and when asked
his occupation - replied Carpenter. Jesus leaned a little closer. He
inquired about his family and the man said that he had only one son but
had lost him. Jesus leaned a little closer. Jesus said, "You were a
carpenter and you had only one son and you lost him!" Jesus leaned closer
and asked, "Did he have any identifying marks?"  The man replied, "Well
yes, he had holes in his hands and feet!" Jesus threw his arms around him
and cried, "FATHER!" 

 The man hesitantly looked back and said .............. "Pinocchio ??"
