Rinder, Moxon, and Li'l Dave went to the Winter Wonderland. Unfortunately, a big bus driving from berthing to courseroom with a blacked-out windshield jumped the curb and they were squished like baby thetans under a massive Hand.

Being ineffectual beings caught in their own delusions, they were routed to Heaven where they were met at the Pearly Gates by St. Peter. He said, welcome to Heaven, gentlemen. I'm sure you'll be quite comfortable here, but I must warn you that we do have our rules in Heaven, If you break them, you'll be punished. One rule is, never step on a duck. If you step on a duck, the duck quacks, then they all quack, and it just goes on and on."

That sounded simple enough. They passed through the Pearly Gates and were surprised to find there were ducks everywhere! In no time at all, Rinder stepped on one. The duck quacked, then they all quacked, they made a terrible racket and it just went on and on.

Pretty soon along came St. Peter with a terribly homely woman in tow. "I warned you that if you broke the duck rule you'd be punished."

He chained the homely woman to Rinder and said, "You will be together forever," and walked away.

Sometime later, despite his best efforts, Moxon accidentally stepped on a duck. The duck quacked, then they all quacked and made a terrible commotion that just went on and on.

Sure enough, along came St. Peter with an even homelier woman. "I warned you that if you broke the duck rule you'd be punished." With that, he chained the woman to Moxon and said, "The two of you will be together for all eternity," and walked away.

Well, Li'l Dave was very careful not to step on a duck.

One day St. Peter came along with a drop dead gorgeous blonde. He chained her to Li'l Dave and said, "You will be together now and forever more," and walked away. Li'l Dave exclaimed,"Wow, I wonder what I did to deserve this?"

"I don't know about you,"said the beautiful woman, -- "But I stepped on a duck..."
