Lottie, a rather adventuresome lady from out west, sent this one...

Harry and Edna, both 85 years old, had been married for sixty years. Though they were far from rich, they managed to get by because they watched their pennies.

And while they were no longer young, they were both in very good health, largely due to the Edna's insistence on healthy foods and exercise for the last decade.

One day, their good health didn't help when they went on a rare vacation and their plane crashed, sending them off to Heaven.

They reached the pearly gates, and St. Peter escorted them inside. He took them to a beautiful mansion, furnished in gold and fine silks, with a fully stocked kitchen and a waterfall in the master bath. A maid could be seen hanging their favorite clothes in the closet.

Harry and Edna gasped in astonishment when he said, "Welcome to Heaven. This will be your home now."

Harry then asked how much all this was going to cost. "Why, nothing," St. Peter replied, "Remember, this is your reward in Heaven."

Harry looked out the window and right there he saw a championship golf course, finer and more beautiful than any ever built on earth. "What are the greens fees?" grumbled Harry.

"This is heaven," St. Peter replied. "You can play for free, every day."

Next they went to the clubhouse and saw the lavish buffet lunch, with every imaginable cuisine laid out before them, from seafood to steaks to exotic desserts, free flowing beverages.

"Don't even ask," said St. Peter. "This is Heaven, it is all free for you to enjoy."

Harry looked around and glanced nervously Edna.

"Well, where are the low fat and low cholesterol foods, and the decaffeinated tea?" he asked.

"That's the best part," St. Peter replied. "You can eat and drink as much as you like of whatever you like, and you will never get fat or sick. This is Heaven!"

Harry pushed, "No gym to work out at?"

"Not unless you want to." was the answer.

"No testing my sugar or blood pressure or..."

"Never again, Harry. All you do here is enjoy yourself."

Harry glared at Edna and said, 'You and your bran muffins! We could have been here ten years ago!"
