Preparing for HellAn old man walks into the University Offices and says, ``I'd like to enroll in a Latin course'' The Dean looks at him and asks rather coyly, ``How old are you, Sir?'' ``Ninety-three,'' is the reply. ``Then why do you want to learn Latin, at your time in life?'' ``Well,'' the man explains, '`I realize I haven't got long for this world, but if I go to Heaven I'd like to be able to speak to God and the Angels in their own language, and I'd feel more comfortable if I knew some Latin'' The Dean thinks, and then asks ``But what if you don't go to Heaven but go to--you know--the other place?'' ``That's alright--I can already speak German.''
