Email To My Brother: Heaven

When you get to Heaven, the very first thing they do is give you a box with everything you've ever lost on Earth.
     Needless to say, most of it will be filled with single socks missing their partners, which will still be on Earth.
     In Revelation, the apostle John talks about being transported to Heaven, and he describes his visit there. Streets... paved with gold. Meetings... with Jesus! Who turns out to look like a black man with fiery eyes.
     I bet you're regretting all those BANG! "Stop or I'll shoot!" situations you found yourself in when you were still in law enforcement.
     The only down side I could find about Heaven in the Bible was God's promise that He would build a mansion for you when you get there, so you'll be having to deal with Heavenly contractors and having to get this permit and that permit from Heavenly bureaucrats. Construction workers who won't show up, or do a half-assed job. They're already in Heaven. Why should they care? Maybe you'll want to put in a swimming pool, but then you'll find out that the cloud where you want to put it can't be removed due to some regulation a very dead Nancy Pelosi came up with for the protection of other clouds. Then you'll find out that you can't have a pool at all, because there's a rare species of cherubs living there and can't be moved.
     No, dealing with having to build a mansion seems to be more trouble than it's worth, but what can you do? Live with your ex-wife, who will already be there? She 'll have qualified on a technicality because of all the years she had to live with you. You might want to sleep in the street made of gold, but they have laws that strictly forbid that. I didn't read anything about video games being there, so you might be out of luck in that regard. But...
     After a billion years, that would get boring, too.
