When the late opera star Luciano Pavarotti went to heaven, St. Peter was so happy to see hom when he arrived at the pearly gates.
"Hello, Luciano! I'm so pleased to see you! Please come in! Squeeze through!" said St Peter.
But Pavarotti replied, "St. Peter, before I go in, here is a letter from the Pope for you." Please read it."
He gave St. Peter the envelope, he opened it, and it read:
Dear St. Peter,
I hope everything is going well up there in Heaven and here is that tenor I owe you.
Yours sincerely, Pope Benedict XVI
