When Jesus came upon St. Peter he noticed a long line of people waiting to get into Heaven. Jesus', being the kind of guy he was, began to help St. Peter take care of the long line. Jesus' began to notice a bearded old man near the end of the line. As the line moved slowly forward, Jesus' kept thinking to himself that the man seemed very familiar. Finally, the old bearded man was first in line. Jesus asked him if he was a carpenter. The old man replied that he indeed was a carpenter. Jesus then asked him if he had a son and if the son ran away. The old man replied that his son had run away once and that he was very upset at the time. Jesus was convinced. He embraced the old man and said, "Father". To which the old man replied, "Pinochio" (sp?). -- Kevin Kulhanek ..!ihnp4!ihopa!kirk AT&T Bell Labs, Naperville, Il. (312) 979-5308
