Taxi Driver At The Pearly Gates
A clergy dies and, resplendent in clerical collar and colorful robes, is waiting in line at the Pearly Gates.
Just ahead of him is a guy dressed in sunglasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket, and jeans.
Saint Peter addresses this guy, "Who are you, so that I may know whether or not to admit you to the Kingdom of Heaven?"
The guy replies, "I'm Joe Green, taxi-driver, of New York City."
Saint Peter consults his list. He smiles and says to the taxi-driver, "Take this silken robe and golden staff, and enter into the Kingdom."
So the taxi-driver goes into Heaven with his robe and staff.
And now the clergy person is at the first of the line.
The cleric stands erect and, without being asked, proclaims, "I am Joseph Snow, head pastor of Saint Mary's for the last forty-three years."
Saint Peter consults his list. Looking up, he says to the cleric, "Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the Kingdom of Heaven."
"Just a minute," says the clergy person. "That man was a taxi-driver, and you issued him a silken robe and golden staff; but I get wood and cotton. How can this be?"
"Up here, we work by results," says Saint Peter. "While you preached, people slept; while he drove, people prayed.

The first man gave him money.....the second one thanked him.....but the third one....slapped the taxi driverin the face.
The taxi driver realized that one of them must have noticed that the taxi hadn't moved an inch.....so, he asked the third man : "what was that for?"
The third man replied: "control your speed next time......you almost killed us....."
