2. These cosmic photos always scare me a little

I think, "what if I was adrift in all that" and I feel really cold, lonely and scared.

Even looking up at the stars on a dark night make me feel to tiny and insignificant.

16. 30 years from now, John Elway dies and goes to heaven.

Saint Peter is showing him around and takes him to the neighborhood in heaven where all NFL QBs live. The houses are all very nice, suburban-type houses with nice lawns, backyard pools, barbecues and NFL team flags flying on the front porch rails. As they turn a corner, Elway sees a sprawling, gated mansion with a gold-paved driveway, fountains, flower gardens and Steelers flags flying atop stone pillars.

Elway says to Saint Peter excitedly, "Wow! That must be Terry Bradshaw's house!"

"Oh no," replies Saint Peter. "That's GOD's house."

17. The way I heard it

Was a famous race driver dies and St. Peter tells him he can have anything he wants and asks him what he wants. The race driver says he wants the fastest cloud in heaven and St. Peter gives it to him.

So the race driver is in heaven going the speed of light and passing all the angels and souls when suddenly out of nowhere this pink cloud comes up behind him and zips right past him leaving him spinning out and crashing into a stationary cloud.

The race driver goes stomping back to St. Peter and reminds him that he promised that he could have the fasted cloud in heaven. St. Peter says, "Yeah, sure you have it. Why?"

So the race driver tells him that this pink cloud came out and passed him like he was just standing still.

St. Peter says, "Oh that! That's J.C. and his old man owns the joint."
