A bent over figure approached the Pearly Gates and saw St. Peter standing there. "You know, the thing...can I enter?"
St. Peter replied "Let's have a little chat first. Take a seat."
St. Peter peered at the figure before him and asked "What was it you did for a living?"
The bent old figure replied "I was a puppet all my life".
"Ah yes, I was a storyteller" reminisced St. Peter. Then remembering his boyhood he leaned forward. "Did you entertain many people?"
"Oh yes, people laughed every time I opened my mouth. I was quite a hit."
St. Peter continued, "You seem quite happy with that big smile, are you?"
"Oh no sir, it's painted on. It's completely fake."
St. Peter looked him up and down and replied "You look weak, do your arms and legs move?"
The bent old man replied "I'm used to people pulling my strings" and then a dawning realization came over him.
He leaned forward and peered at the Saintly figure before him and whispered, "Geppetto?"
St. Peter leaned forward even more and whispered, "Joe Biden?"

😀 I was waiting for Obama or Soros, instead of Geppetto, but we know neither of them would have made it to the pearly gates.
St. Peter was at the Pearly Gates when 3 men appeared, seeking admission. Pete said tell me what you did on Earth to justify your entrance? The men said "We were all police officers."
"Really? said Pete. "You- what did you do as an LEO?" "I was a Highway Patrolman. I kept the streets safe for our families."
"Well- that was worthy- welcome to Heaven. How about you?"
"I worked in Narcotics- and kept drugs away from our families." "Well, that is also worthy. Welcome to Heaven. How about you?"
The third man said "I was an Army Military Policeman." Pete said "Man! I have been waiting all day for you! Listen, I have GOT to take a break- how about watching the gate for me?."
M.P. = Multi Purpose. We did it all.
