Ben, Pete and Nick went to a car race one day. Unfortunately, a
 race car crashed through the fence into the spectators and they
 were killed.
 
 Being good God-fearing men, they ascended to Heaven where they
 where 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, Ben 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 Ben and said, "You will
 be together forever," and walked away.
 
 Sometime later, despite his best efforts, Pete 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 Pete and said, "The two of you
 will be together for all eternity," and walked away.
 
 Well, Nick 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 Nick and said, "You will be together now and forever more," and
 walked away.
 
 Nick 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..."
