Pearly Gates (Harold)
Harold, a delapidated 70-year old man, had never wanted one woman so much in his life... but he overhead the 22-year old beauty remark that he was too old and out of shape for her. The determined man immediately embarked upon a rigorous self-improvement program. He had his face lifted, bought a toupee, ran five miles every day, lifted weights, and adopted a strict vegetarian diet. Within months, the rejuvenated old man won the young woman's heart, and she agreed to marry him. On the way out of the chapel, however, Harold was fatally struck by lightning. He confronted Saint Peter at the pearly gates, furiously. "How could you do this to me, after all the pain I went through?"
"To be honest, Harold," Saint Peter sheepishly replied, "I didn't recognize you!"
