In A New York Minute
Saint Peter was minding the Pearly Gates when forty people from New York
City showed up.
Never having seen anyone from the Big Apple at heaven's door, Saint Peter
said he would have to check with The Boss.
After hearing the news, God instructed him to admit the ten most virtuous
people from the group.
A few minutes later, Saint Peter returned to God breathless and said,
"They're gone!"
"What? All of the New Yorkers are gone?" asked God.
"No!" replied Saint Peter, "The Pearly Gates!"
