A man arrives at the gates of heaven.
St. Peter asks, "Religion?"
The man says, "Episcopalian."
St. Peter looks down his list, and says, "Go to room 24.
But be very quiet as you pass room 8."
Another man arrives at the gates of heaven.
St. Peter: "Religion"?
Man: "Baptist."
St. Peter: "Go to room 18. But be very quiet as you pass
room 8."
A third man arrives at the gates.
St. Peter: "Religion?"
Man: "Jewish."
St. Peter: "Go to room 11. But be very quiet as you pass
room 8."
The man asks, "I can understand there being different rooms
for different religions, but why must I be quiet when I pass
room 8?"
St. Peter tells him, "Well, the Catholics are in room 8,
and they think they're the only ones here."

I would like to add at this juncture, that this was told to me by my future Mother In Law, who is an Irish Catholic. :-)

Didn't think Catholic's believed in hell?

wouldn't know. I'm one of the lot feeling like nit-wits ; - )
Later, Jim went to the kitchen to get some refreshments. Bob's wife followed and asked, 'Did you see anything that you like under there?' Surprised by her boldness, Jim admitted that, well indeed he did. She said, 'Well, you can have it but it will cost you £500.'
After taking a minute or two to assess the financial and moral costs of this offer, Jim confirms that he is interested.
Sue told him that since her husband Bob worked Friday afternoons and Jim didn't, Jim should be at her house around 2 p.m. Friday afternoon.
When Friday rolled around, Jim showed up at Bob's house at 2 p.m. sharp and after paying Sue the agreed sum of £500 - they went to the bedroom and closed their transaction, as agreed.
Jim quickly dressed and left.
As usual, Bob came home from work at 6 p.m. And upon arriving, asked his wife: 'Did Jim come by the house this afternoon?'
With a lump in her throat Sue answered 'Why yes, he did stop by for a few minutes this afternoon.' Her heart nearly skipped a beat when her husband curtly asked, 'And did he give you £500?'
Sue, using her best poker face, replied, 'Well, yes, in fact he did give me £500.'
Bob, with a satisfied look on his face, surprised his wife by saying, 'He came by the office this morning and borrowed £500 from me. He promised he'd stop by our house this afternoon on his way home and pay me back.'
