The couple were 85 years old, and had been married for
> sixty years. Though they were far from rich, they managed to get by
> because they watched their pennies.
>
> Though not young, they were both in very good health,
> largely due to the wife's insistence on healthy foods and exercise for the
> last decade.

>
> One day, their good health didn't help when they went on
> a rare vacation and their plane crashed, sending them off to Heaven.

> They reached the pearly gates, and St. Peter escorted
> them inside. He took them to a beautiful mansion, furnished in gold and
> fine silks, with a fully stocked kitchen and a waterfall in the master
> bath. A maid could be seen hanging their favorite clothes in the closet.

> They gasped in astonishment when he said, "Welcome to

> The old man asked Peter how much all this was going to

> The old man looked out the window and right there he saw
> a championship golf course, finer and more beautiful than any ever-built
> on Earth.

> "What are the greens fees?", grumbled the old man.
>
> "This is heaven," St. Peter replied. "You can play for

> Next they went to the clubhouse and saw the lavish buffet
> lunch, with every imaginable cuisine laid out before them, from seafood to
> steaks to exotic deserts, free flowing beverages.

> "Don't even ask," said St. Peter to the man. "This is
> Heaven, it is all free for you to enjoy."

> The old man looked around and glanced nervously at his

> "Well, where are the low fat and low cholesterol foods,

> "That's the best part," St. Peter replied. "You can eat

> This is Heaven!"

> The old man pushed, "No gym to work out at?"

> "Not unless you want to," was the answer.

> "No testing my sugar or blood pressure or..."

> "Never again. All you do here is enjoy yourself."
