The life was evolving peacefully at the post-office. While one guy was reading the paper the other was solving a cross-word puzzle, the third was writing a joke and so on.

Since that wonderful machine was installed ten years ago they had nothing to do, the machine was automatically allocating all the letters.

But suddenly, the machine threw a letter off ...

Everybody was surprised. What happened they asked themselves.

One guy picked the letter up and said:

"Look!, I know why the machine discarded the letter, see the address".

Saint Peter

The Heaven

"How the hell the machine could manage something like this. Let us see what it says!"

They opened the letter and what do you think they read. A very sad story, a terrible grief. In short, that person was asking saint Peter for $50 to solve his most urgent needs.

"You know what can we do?", the guy who picked the letter up said, "let us gather as much money as we can and send it back to him"

Everybody put the money they could but they were only able to gathered 40 "bucks".

"Well, let us send this amount to him!"

They did so, and the time passed while the life was evolving peacefully at the post-office. Once again, while one guy was reading the paper the other was solving a cross-word puzzle, the third was writing a joke and so on.

But suddenly, the machine threw a letter off. Everybody was surprised. What has happened they asked themselves. One guy picked the letter up and said.

"Look!, do you remember the guy with the big problem asking for money to Saint Peter, see the address!. I am sure his writing to give thanks for the money we sent to him. Let us open the letter and read it, so we can answer back".

The letter said:

Dear Saint Peter.

I received your letter with the money but there were only 40 "bucks", so, the odds are the people at the post-office opened the letter and took $10, so please, send those $10 again.

Thank you again!

Sincerely yours,
