Bill Gates died and went to heaven, where Saint Peter showed him to his house that had 20 rooms, a huge ground and a tennis court. He was pleased with the amenities and spent many months enjoying heaven. One day, when he was relaxing at one of heaven's many fine parks, he ran into a man dressed in a well tailored suit. 'That is a nice suit, my friend,' began Gates, 'Where did you get it?' 'Actually,' the man replied: 'I was given a hundred of these when I got here. I've been treated really well. I have a mansion on a hill overlooking a beautiful hill, with a huge five-hundred acre estate, a golf course and three Rolls Royce cars.' 'Were you a Pope, or a doctor healing the sick?' asked the surprised Gates. 'No,' said his new friend, 'Actually, I was the captain of the Titanic.' This angered Gates so much that he immediately stalked off to find St. Peter.

I invented the Windows operating system! Why does he deserve better?' 'Yes, but we use Windows,' replied Peter calmly, 'And the Titanic only crashed once.
