Good Deed

A man is standing at the pearly gates and St. Peter addresses him: ‘All you need to have done is one good deed, and we will allow you passage into heaven’

The man says, ‘No problem,’ as he recounts to St. Peter that he once stopped at an intersection and saw a motorcycle gang harassing a young woman. He got out of his car, walked up to one of the bikers—who was over seven feet tall and must have weighed nearly 400 pounds—and told the biker that abusing and harassing a woman is a cowardly act and that he would not tolerate it in his presence. He then reached up, yanked out his nose ring and kicked him in the balls to make a point.

St. Peter is frantically searching the man’s life in his book in front of him and says, ‘I can’t find that incident anywhere in your file:when did that happen?’

The man looks down at his watch and says, ‘Oh, about five minutes ago.’
