223 A Screen Saver 屏幕保護(hù)畫
Upon dying, Bill Gates went to purgatory. St. Peter said to him, “Bill, you have done some good things and some bad things. Now I am going to let you decide where you want to go.” So, Bill took a look at hell and saw beautiful women running around on beautiful beach. Then he took a look at heaven and it was nice, you know harps and singing and worship and stuff like that. So he said to St. Peter that he would like to go to hell. About a week later, St. Peter went down to hell to check on Bill. There he saw him, being whipped by demons. He said to St. Peter, “What happened to all the beautiful women and the beach?” Peter replied, “That was just the screen saver.”
