In Canada we have been blessed with a national police force, the famous Royal Canadian Mounted Police or "Mounties". Although most are good people, some are a bit arrogant and often the brunt of jokes leveled at the by other agencies.

Two Calgary City cops are killed in a gunfight and find themselves standing at the back of the line to see St. Peter.It gets pretty boring after a while and they decide to find out what's taking so long and stroll up the line. As they approach St.Peter,a scarlet clad Mountie on a beautiful stallion at the full gallop, rides past everyone and the pearly gates open up instantly to let him in.

The two Calgary Cops look at each other and then at St.Peter.One says,"Hey buddy,what's with us waiting all day and that Mountie jumping the line?"

St.Peter looks up from his ledger and sighs. "He does this all the time."

The two cops shake their heads and mumble something unpleasant. At that moment the gates open up and the same,scarlet horseman gallops back out into the clouds.

Now the two city cops are really miffed and as their turn on the ledger looms the gates open up once more for the speeding horseman. At the big desk,St. Peter looks down at them and asks their names. "Never mind our names," says one cop,"Just who the heck is that damn Mountie?" St.Peter fixes them with a withering glare.

"That,gentlemen is GOD, He just thinks He's a Mountie."
