BASEBALL IN HEAVEN?

Two buddies, Bob and Earl, were two of the biggest baseball fans in the world. For their entire lives, Bob and Earl discussed
baseball history in the winter and they poured over every box score during the season. They went to 80 games a year.
They even agreed that whoever died first would come back and tell the other if there was baseball in heaven.

One summer night, Bob passed away in his sleep after watching the Red Sox victory earlier in the evening. He died happy.
A few nights later, his buddy Earl awoke to the sound of Bob's voice from beyond. "Bob, is that you??" Earl asked.
"Of course it's me," Bob replied. "This is unbelievable!" Earl exclaimed. "So tell me, is there baseball in heaven?"

"Well, I have some good news and some bad news for you. Which do you want first?"
"Tell me the good news first."
"Well, the good news is that yes, there is baseball in heaven, Earl."
"Oh, that is wonderful! So what could possibly be the bad news?"
"You're the starting pitcher for tomorrow night!"

These questions about marriage were asked to children of various ages. Their responses are very interesting. Enjoy!

How do you decide whom to marry?
You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports,
and she should keep the chips and dip coming. -Alan, age 10
No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry.
God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with. -Kirsten, age 10

What is the right age to get married?
Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then. -Camille, age 10

How can a stranger tell if two people are married?
You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids. -Derrick, age 8

What do most people do on a date?
Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say
if you listen long enough. -Lynette, age 8
On the first date they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go
for a second date. -Martin, age 10

When is it ok to kiss someone?
When they're rich. -Pam, age 7
The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't mess with that. -Curt, age 7
The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do. -Howard, age 8

Is it better to be single or married?
It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them. -Anita, age 9

How would the world be different if people didn't get married?
There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there? -Kelvin, age 8
