    A lawyer died and arrived at the pearly gates.  To his dismay, there
were thousands of people ahead of him in line to see St. Peter.  To his
surprise, St. Peter left his desk at the gate and came down the long line
to where the lawyer was, and greeted him warmly.  Then St. Peter and one of
his assistants took the lawyer by the hands and guided him up to the front
of the line, and into a comfortable chair by his desk.  The lawyer said, "I
don't mind all this attention, but what makes me so special?"

    St. Peter replied, "Well, we've added up all the hours for which you
billed your clients, and by my calculations you must be about 193 years old."
