A friend just emailed this to me, hoping other long-term residents find it as sad and funny as I did:

Virgin Islands Hell
> >
> > A man dies and goes to hell. There he finds that there is a different
> > hell for each country. He goes first to the German hell and asks'What do
> > they do here?' He is told 'First they put you in an electric chair for an
> > hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails foranother hour. Then the
> > German devil comes in and whips you for the rest of the day.'
> >
> > The man does not like the sound of that at all, so he moves on. He checks
> > out the USA hell as well as the Russian hell and many more. He discovers
> > that they are all more or less the same as the German hell.
> >
> > Then he comes to the Virgin Islands hell and finds that there is a very
> > long line of people waiting to get in. Amazed he asks 'What do they do
> > here?' He is told 'First they put you in an electric chair for an hour.
> > Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the Virgin
> > Islands devil comes in and whips you for the rest of the day.' 'But that
> > is
> > exactly the same as all the other hells - why are there so many people
> > waiting to get in?' he asked. 'Because there is never any electricity,
> > therefore the electric chair does not work, someone thief all the nails
> > so there's none to lay you on, and the devil used to work for the
> > government so he comes in, signs the attendance register and then goes
> > back home..'

Hilarious! In a really awful way, of course.

That is so funny. Of course it could also apply to several other islands I can think of.....! Is there any way to forward this to someone?

Sabrina, assuming you have a windows operating system........Use your mouse and place the curser at the beginning of the joke. Left click and holding it in the clicked position, drag it down to the bottom of the narrative you want and release the left click. The narrative should be completely highlited now. Then at the top left of your monitor, click on edit.....a small window will open.....one of the options will be "copy"......click on "copy"........Now, go to your email, open a new email and place your curser in the box you would write your email in....Left click once.......Click on edit again.......select the option "paste".....viola!!!
The narrative you copied is now pasted to your email!!!! Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.
Now if you have a MAC computer, I can't help you:)

Thank you so much Jay. I tried it and it worked. Also used an option to save it on a file. I'm embarrassed that I don't know more about computers, but have only ever learnt airline reservations and "client track" in the course of my work! I know I really need to do some training, just haven't got around to it yet.

someone emailed that joke to me last week and it was so true I sent it out to a bunch of people who aren't from here and they are still trying to figure it out... which is even funnier.
