Humorous Sunday - "I Didn't Recognize You"

A little of something from the lighter side of life.  This is one of my favorites!  Thanks once again Chuck Keortge for sharing this.


(I heard this on a Spanish language radio station recently.  Hope you like it. - Chuck)  

 A forty year old man was involved in a traffic accident and ended up talking to St. Peter in heaven.

 He was told, “You shouldn’t be here yet .  You have another forty years to live.”  A few days later the man awakened from his coma and made a speedy recovery.

He went right out and began to plan the next forty years of his life.  He bought a red Corvette.  He had a hair transplant.  He joined a gym and started to diet.  He lost 52 pounds and  gained some muscle.  He bought a new wardrobe and grew a moustache.  He started to apply himself at work and got a promotion and a raise. He began to attend church every Sunday and became much more considerate of his wife and would play with his children. He even began to regularly put something in the offering plate.

Six months later while down town for some business, he stepped off of the curb, was hit by bus and was killed instantly.  When he again confronted St. Peter the man was angry.  “How could this happen?  You promised me forty more years,” he complained.

St. Peter shrugged his shoulders and replied, “Sorry, I didn’t recognize you”.
