The Cab Driver Goes to Heaven
A cab driver reaches the Pearly Gates and announces
his presence to St. Peter, who looks him up in his Big Book. Upon
reading the entry for the cabby, St. Peter invites him to pick up a silk
robe and a golden staff and to proceed into Heaven.
A preacher is next in line behind the cabby and has
been watching these proceedings with interest.? He announces himself to St.
Peter. Upon scanning the preacher's entry in the Big Book, St. Peter
furrows his brow and says, "Okay, i will let you in, but take that cloth
robe and wooden staff."
The preacher is astonished and replies, "But I am a
man of the cloth. You gave that cab driver a gold staff and a silk robe.
Surely I rate higher than a cabby."
St. Peter responded matter-of-factly this is
heaven and, up here, we are interested in results.?
When you preached, people slept.
When the cabby drove his taxi, people prayed."
