"Three nuns who had recently died were on their way to Heaven. At the Pearly Gates they were met by St Peter. Clustered around the gates was a collection of lights and bells.

St Peter stopped them and told them that they would each have to answer a question before they could enter. ST PETER: What were the names of the two people in the Garden of Eden?

1ST NUN: Adam and Eve.

The lights flashed. the bells rang and in she went through the Pearly Gates.

ST PETER: What did Adam eat from the forbidden tree?

2ND NUN: An apple.

The lights flashed, the bells rang and in she went through the Pearly Gates.

And finally it came the turn of the last nun. ST PETER: What was the first thing Eve said to Adam?

After a few minutes thinking she said, 'Gosh, that's a hard one!'

The lights flashed, the bells rang and in she went through the Pearly Gates!

A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway when he notices a sign out of the comer of his eye. It says SISTERS OF MERCY HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION 10 MILES. He thinks it is just a figment of his imagination and drives on without a second thought. Soon he sees another sign which says SISTERS OF MERCY HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION SMILES and realizes that these signs are for real.

When he drives past a third sign saying SISTERS OF MERCY HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION NEXT RIGHT his curiosity gets the best of him and he pulls into the drive.

On the far side of the parking lot stands a sombre stone building with a small sign next to the door reading SISTERS OF MERCY. He climbs the steps and rings the bell. The door is answered by a nun in a long black habit who asks. 'What may we do for you, my son?' He answers, 'I saw your signs along the highway and was interested in possibly doing business.'

'Very well, my son. Please follow me.'

He is led through many winding passages and is soon quite disoriented. The nun stops at a closed door, and tells the man, 'Please knock on this door.' He does as he is told and the door is answered by another nun, holding a tin cup.

'Please place $50 in the cup, then go through the large wooden door at the end of this hallway: she says. He gets $50 out of his wallet and places it in the second nun's cup. He trots eagerly down the hall and slips through the door, pulling it shut behind him. As the door locks behind him, he finds himself back in the parking lot, facing another small sign: GO IN PEACE. YOU HAVE JUST BEEN SCREWED BY THE SISTERS OF MERCY.
