On their way to get married, a young Catholic couple is involved in afatal car accident. The couple find themselves sitting outside thePearly Gates waiting for St. Peter to process them into Heaven.While waiting, they begin to wonder: Could they possibly get married inHeaven? When St. Peter showed up, they asked him.St. Peter says, "I don't know. This is the first time anyone has asked.Let me go find out," and he leaves. The couple sat and waited for ananswer. Two months pass and the couple is still waiting.So as they waited, they discussed that IF they were allowed to getmarried in Heaven, SHOULD they get married, what with the eternal aspectof it all. "What if it doesn't work?" they wondered, "Are we stucktogether FOREVER?"After yet another month, St. Peter finally returns, looking somewhatbedraggled. "Yes," he informs the couple, "you CAN get married inHeaven.""Great!" said the couple, "But we were just wondering, what if thingsdon't work out? Could we also get a divorce in Heaven?"! St. Peter, red-faced with anger, slams his clipboard onto the ground."What's wrong?" asked the frightened couple."OH, COME ON!" St. Peter shouts, "It took me three months to find apriest up here!Do you have ANY idea how long it'll take me to find a lawyer?"
