baseball heaven?
There were two old guys, Abe and Sol, sitting on a bench in a park feeding pigeons and talking about baseball. Just like they did every day. Abe turned to Sol and asked, " Do you think there's baseball in heaven? " Soloman thought about it for a minute and replied, " I dunno, Abe, but let's make a deal: If I die first, I will come back and tell you – – and if you die first, you come back and tell me – – if there is baseball in heaven. " They shook on it. Sadly, a few months later poor Abe passed on. One day soon afterward, Sol was sitting there feeding the pigeons by himself when he heard a voice whisper, " Sol… Sol…. " Sol responded, " Abe! Is that you? " " Yes it is Sol, " whispered the spirit of Abe. Sol, still amazed, asked, " So, is there baseball in heaven? " " Well, " Abe said, " I got good news and I got bad news. " " Gimme the good news first, " said Sol. Abe said, " Well… there is baseball in heaven. " Sol said, " That's great! What news could be bad enough to ruin that!? " Abe sighed and whispered, " You're pitching on Friday. "
