>Two buddies Bob and Earl were two of the biggest baseball fans in
>America. For their entire adult lives, Bob and Earl discussed
>baseball history in the winter and they pored over every box
>score during the season. They went to 60 games a year. They even
>agreed that whoever died first would try to come back and tell
>the other if there was baseball in heaven.
>
>One summer night, Bob passed away in his sleep after watching the
>Yankee victory earlier in the evening. He died happy. A few
>nights later, his buddy Earl awoke to the sound of Bob's voice
>from beyond. "Bob is that you?" Earl asked.
>
>"Of course it me," Bob replied.
>
>"This is unbelievable!" Earl exclaimed. "So tell me, is there
>baseball in heaven?"
>
>"Well I have some good news and some bad news for you. Which do
>you want to hear first?"
>
>"Tell me the good news first."
>
>"Well, the good news is that, yes, there is baseball in heaven,
>Earl."
>
>"Oh, that is wonderful! So what could possibly be the bad news?"
>
>"You're pitching tomorrow night."
