An explosion last week killed a wild-living navy boilerman and he found
himself in hell. Being used to stoking fires and extremely hot
temperatures, he found hell actually quite comfortable. When Satan went to
check out the new arrival, he found him sitting in his room smiling.
"You like this?", Satan asked.
"Yes, sir", said the sailor, "this feels like a spring day to me." Not
wanting the new guy to be too comfortable, Satan turned up the heat a bit.
When he went back the next day to see how his new arrival was doing, the
sailor was still happy; he hadn`t even broken a sweat.
"I like this kind of weather", he told Satan.
For the next few days in a row, Satan again turned up the heat, but each
day the Sailor looked as comfortable as ever. By last Sunday, Satan
decided to try something different. Rather than turn up the heat even
more, he turned it off. Icicles formed in the sailor`s room! When he
checked on the guy, the room was icy and he was shivering, but he had a
grin from ear to ear, bigger than ever. Satan was exasperated!
"Why are YOU so happy?" he demanded from the sailor. "It`s FREEZING in
here!"
"Well, I`m from Denver," said the sailor. "and evidently the Broncos just
won the Super Bowl!"
