"Well, St. Pete replies, "It's never been done but I'll check into it."

Two hundred years pass and St. Peter calls up the couple and says, "Okay, you can get married now."

A couple of months pass and the happy couple aren't so happy anymore.

"Please St. Peter," the man complains, "my wife is driving me insane. If we weren't dead already I'd have to kill her."

"Okay, okay," St. Peter replies, " I'll see what I can do."

A thousand years pass and St. Peter tracks done the bitterly fueding couple again to share the good news.

"That's great sir," the man exclaims, " but why did it take so long to get married and even longer to divorce?"

"Well," St. Peter replies, "it usually takes a long time for a priest to grow old and die. How often do you think a lawyer gets up here?"
