"Okay," said Forest. "I hope it's not too hard. I've alreadybeen through a test. My momma used to say, 'Life is like a final exam. It'shard.' "
"Yes, Forest, I know. But this test is only three questions. Here theyare."
1) Which two days of the week begin with the letter 'T'?"
2) How many seconds are in a year?
3) What is God's first name?
"Well, sir," said Forest, "The first one is easy. Which two daysof the week begin with the letter 'T'? Today and Tomorrow."
St. Peter looked surprised and said, "Well, that wasn't the answer I waslooking for, but you have a point. I give you credit for that answer."
"The next question," said Forest, "How many seconds are in ayear? Twelve."
"Twelve?" said St. Peter, surprised and confused.
"Yes, sir. January 2nd, February 2nd, March 2nd …"
St. Peter interrupted him. "I see what you mean. I'll have to give youcredit for that one, too."
"And the last question," said Forest, "What is God's first name?It's Andy."
"Andy?" said St. Peter, in shock. "How did you come up with'Andy'?"
"I learned it in church. We used to sing about it." Forest broke intosong, "Andy walks with me, Andy talks with me, Andy tells me I am Hisown."
St. Peter opened the gate to heaven and said, "Run, Forest, Run!"
