OK . . . .
One of the Popes shuffled off the mortal coil and presented himself to Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates. Saint Peter welcomed him into Heaven and pointed to a small but lovely cottage halfway up a nearby mountain. "That is where you will be spending eternity, Your Holiness," Saint Peter entoned.
The Pope looked up at the cottage and found it to be pleasing, but then noticed a magnificent mansion at the top of the mountain commanding a view of the entire Heavenly Kingdon. "And who resides in that magnificent mansion?", the Pope inquired.
"A lawyer resides there, Your Holiness," Saint Peter responded.
Outraged, the Pope turned to Saint Peter and exclaimed, "Do you mean to tell me that I, the Bishop of Rome and your successor to the Holy See am required to live in that small cottage while some lawyer is allowed to spend eternity in that magnificent mansion?"
Placing a comforting arm on the Pope's shoulder, Saint Peter replied, "I feel your pain, Your Holiness. However, you need to understand that, while we get almost every Pope up here, that is the first and only lawyer ever to be granted admission."
