A young jogger comes by and asks him what is the matter.
The old man says, “I’m a multimil- lionare, I have a great big house, the fastest car in the world and I just married a beautiful blonde bombshell who satisfies me every night in bed whether I like it or not (sob).”
The young jogger says, “Man, you have everything I have eve dreamed for in my life.
What could be so wrong in your life that you are sitting here in the park crying?”
The old man says, “I can’t remember where I live.”
An older lady was doing some household chores on a beautiful Sunday morning, when she sudden- ly heard the door- bell ring.
She opened the door to see a well dressed man standing there who said, “Hello, I’m a Jehovah’s Witness, do you have a moment to discuss the Holy Word?”
The lady was in a good mood and had just put on a pot of coffee, so she invited the man in and sat
down with him at the kitchen table.
When she offered him a cup of cof- fee, she noticed that the man looked a little lost.
She asked, “Now, what would you like to talk about, dear?”
The young man replied with a pale and shocked face,
“Beats the hell out of me, I’ve never gotten this far...”
They all arrive at the Pearly Gates and Saint Peter says “Let me ask you a question before admitting you to heaven.”
To the first he says “My son, while on Earth did you lead a good life?”
“Oh yes, ” says the first man,” I had thirty years of marriage to a wonderful woman and I was honest in business”
“I see here in the book you’re telling the truth”, says Saint Peter, “here are your keys to a brand new Mercedes to drive in Heaven”.
To the second he says “My son, while on Earth did you lead a good life?”
He answers “Saint Peter I was mar- ried for several
years and then cheated on my wife but we recon- ciled.”
“I see here in the book you’re telling the truth”, says Saint Peter,” here are your keys to a used Ford Taurus to drive in heaven. “
The third man steps up and says,” Saint Peter, lemme save us both a lot of trou- ble. I screwed everything in a skirt and never passed up a shot at dirty money”
“Well”, says Saint Peter, “the book says you’re telling the truth ...
awful though it is. Here is a moped to ride in heaven”
Several days later the third man pulls up to a red light only to see the first man slumped over the wheel of his Mercedes, crying.
“What could pos- sibly be so bad? “, he asks.”You had a wonderful life, a great marriage and now you’re driving a Mercedes in Heaven!”
The first man sobs out “I just saw my wife on a skateboard!”

July 17 (UPI) - - A rare, first- generation iPhone from 2007 was auc- tioned for $190,372.80, setting a new record for the "Holy Grail" of collectible iPhones.
LCG
Auctions said Sunday's
auction for the factory-sealed 4 gigabyte model iPhone ended with a high bid of more than 400
times the device's original price.
"The original 4GB model is considered a 'Holy Grail' amongst iPhone collectors," LGC Auctions wrote in its listing. "Its extreme scarcity is directly related to its limited pro- duction."
The iPhone was discontinued just two months after its launch due to its popularity being far sur- passed by the 8 gigabyte model.
"The phone's provenance is pristine as the consignor was part of the origi- nal engineering team at Apple when the iPhone first launched," the listing stated. "Collectors and investors would be hard pressed to find a superior example."
LCG
Auctions previ- ously sold an 8GB iPhone from 2007 for $63,356.40 in February.
