An important member of the community had died. All the bigshots showed up at the funeral. The mayor stops at the coffin, says a few kind words, and throws a $100 bill the open coffin. The police chief is next, also says a few kind words, throws another $100 into the coffin. Next comes the town's big lawyer who says a few words, grabs the 2 $100 bills and throws in a $300 check.
A lawyer dies and goes to heaven and is greeted at the gate by St Peter. "Welcome! We've been waiting for you, I am supposed to show you to your room!" Well, that's nice thinks the lawyer, so follows him. They get to an elevator and St Peter enters some sort of code and they're whisked away. The doors open and there's this amazing room in sight, a grand ballroom with fountains of fine wine and trays of exquisite fruits and servants etc. "Wow!" says the lawyer. "No, this isn't it, this is for Bishops" frowns St Peter. So he punches up a code again and again they're transported to another room. This room is more fantastic than the last, a beautiful sky above, rainbows, a live band playing heavenly music. "WOW!" says the lawyer. "No, this still isn't it, this is for Popes, let me make a call." So he does and punches another code into the elevator and once again they're whisked off to a room. This one makes the last two seem like the poor section of town, major angels standing around chit-chatting by the pool, a warm sun overhead, the room seems to go on as far as the eye can see with just one indulgence after another. "Is this it?" asks the lawyer, at this point doubtful. "Yes! This is your room, do you like it?" "Well, yes, but, the other two rooms, this is for me?" "Ah! You don't understand, see, we get lots of Bishops and Popes, but YOU sir are our first lawyer!"
Heaven and Hell are separated by a brick wall. Over the eons it's gotten a bit disheveled, bricks missing, in need of repair. God shouts over to Satan "This wall needs fixing!

This angers God and he shouts back "If you don't at least split the work with me I will sue you!" Satan, with a smirk, responds "Oh yeah? And where are YOU going to find a lawyer?"
