Marriage in Heaven

From: Peter Fernandes in Mumbai
Date: 27 October 2010 22:36

CAN WE GET MARRIED IN HEAVEN?

On their way to get married, a young Catholic couple was involved in a fatal car accident. The couple found themselves sitting outside the Pearly Gates waiting for St. Peter to process them into Heaven. While waiting they began to wonder; Could they possibly get married in Heaven?

When St. Peter arrived they asked him if they could get married in Heaven. St. Peter said, "I don't know. This is the first time anyone has asked. Let me go find out," and he left.

The couple sat and waited for an answer.... For a couple of months.

While they waited, they discussed the pros and cons. If they were allowed to get married in Heaven, should they get married, what with the eternal aspect of it all? "What if it doesn't work?

Are we stuck in Heaven together forever?"

Another month passed. St. Peter finally returned, looking somewhat bedraggled. 

 

Yes," he informed the couple, "You can get married in Heaven."

"Great!" said the couple. "But we were just wondering; what if things don't work out? Could we also get a divorce in Heaven?"

St. Peter, red-faced with anger, slammed his clipboard on the ground.

"What's wrong?" asked the frightened couple.

"OH, COME ON!" St. Peter shouted. "It took me 3 months to find a priest up here! Do you have ANY idea how long it'll take to find a lawyer?"

I got an email from Claudius Pias that he needs help. It is a fake letter. I have seen similar letters from other friends. I hope Claudius has taken care of it. He should change pass word and/or email address.

Sincerely

Commonwealth Games - 2010

India did it, after all....
Despite all controversy over lack of preparedness, inefficiency, confusion and corruption, India gave the world, and the Commonwealth, its best Games ever.
Its total tally of 101 medals was an unimaginable best ever, beside its triumph at pipping England to the second best position in the over all ranking of medals tally based on the number of gold medals won. With 2 more golds won on the final day taking their total golds to 38, India overtook England's gold tally of 37, a figure which England had reached with a whopping haul of six golds on the penultimate day.
In the fitness of things, the Closing Ceremony also show-cased the martial arts tradition of India performed by 800 artistes from different states of India. Not many know that the now much touted judo, kung-fu, tae-kwan-do and related Chinese, Korean and Japanese martial arts all evolved from our own Kerala;s Kalaripayattu - knowledge of which was carried to mainland China by the greatest of (Chinese) voyagers ever even before the time of all the great voyagers we studied about in history recorded by the British to suit their agenda.
