One of me Pops favorite jokes, undoubtedly an old one and retread several times in many ways, was as follows.
Two life long friends were baseball fanatics. I'll call one Cloyce and the other Eb just to give them names. Cloyce and Eb loved the game. They loved it so much they made a pact that whoever died first would come back to let the other one know whether there was baseball in Heaven.
As it happened Cloyce passed away before Eb. And surprisingly Cloyce actually appeared to Eb a few days afterwards. "I have two things to tell you, Eb," said Cloyce.
"Well, what's the first?" Eb asked in anticipation.
"There is indeed baseball in Heaven," spectral Cloyce said.
Eb was overjoyed. "That's great Cloyce, just great! So, what's the second thing?"
"You're staring in left field this Saturday."
