Bill Gates died in a car accident.
He found himself in Purgatory being sized up by God .
.. "Well, Bill, I'm really confused on this call. I'm
not sure whether to send you to Heaven or Hell. After
all, you enormously helped society by putting a
computer in almost every home in the world and yet you
created that ghastly Windows 95. I'm going to do
something I've never done before.
In your case, I'm going to let you decide where you
want to go!"
Bill replied, "Well, thanks, God. What's the
difference between the two?"
God said, "I'm willing to let you visit both places
briefly if it will help you make a decision." "Fine,
but where should I go first?" God said, "I'm going to
leave that up to you."
Bill said, "OK, then, let's try Hell first." So Bill
went to Hell. It was a beautiful, clean, sandy beach
with clear waters. There were thousands of beautiful
women running around, playing in the water, laughing,
and frolicking about. The sun was shining and the
temperature was perfect.
Bill was very pleased. "This is great!" he told God,
"If this is
Hell, I REALLY want to see Heaven!" "Fine," said God
and off they went. Heaven was a high place in the
clouds, with angels drifting about playing harps and
singing. It was nice but not as enticing as Hell. Bill
thought for a quick minute and rendered his decision.
"Hmm, I think I prefer Hell" he told God. "Fine,"
retorted God, "as
you desire." So Bill Gates went to Hell .
Two weeks later, God decided to check up on the late
billionaire to
see how he was doing in Hell. When God looked down
into Hell, he found Bill shackled to a wall,
screaming amidst the hot flames in a dark cave.
He was being burned and tortured by demons.
"How's everything going, Bill?" God asked.Bill
responded-his voice full of anguish and
disappointment, "This is awful, this is not what I
expected. I can't believe this happened. What happened
to that other place with the beaches and the
beautiful women playing in the water?"God said, "That
was the screen saver."
