with him. He's never seen a reporter before. He makes the guy a deal.
He can spend one day in heaven and one day in hell and choose one or
the other.
He starts with hell. And it's wonderful! It's like a giant country
club. Plus, all his friends are there. The next day, he goes to
heaven. It's OK, but a little dull. St. Peter asks him where he'd like
to go. "Well, I never thought I'd say this," he responds, "but I'd
rather go to hell."
Arriving in hell, he finds it, well, hellish. Fire and brimstone.
Condemned souls writhing in pain. He demands to see the devil. "What's
going on?" he demands. "Yesterday, this place was a paradise!" The
devil looks at him and says, "Well, yesterday you were just a
free-lancer. Now you're on staff."
