An engineer dies and approaches the Pearly Gates. Unfortunately, St. Peter was out on sick leave, so some monk was manning the gates in his stead. The poor monk, obviously rattled from the sudden burden of responsibilty, can't find the name on the Guest List anywhere! So, despite the engineer's protests, a gigantic black cat and an ugly brute tow the engineer onto the one-way 'helevator.'
The engineer comes to hell and finds the conditions simply deplorable! To combat the heat, the engineer creates a state-of-the-art air conditioning system. Then, harnessing the natural heat of hell, he creates a fantastic power grid (with no carbon footprint!). He even builds sporadic hot-tubs into the floors, complete with bubble-jets. He gets hell on-line, and he even installs a few lifts so that hellions can climb up to earth's surface and wander around freely.
One day, God and Lucifer are having one of their bi-millenial progress reports. God askes, "So, ol' 'Zebub, how goes it down in hell" with a sarcastic grin. To God's surprise, Satan raves about the creature comforts available in hell! He tells God about all the new developments, and says, "Thanks for sending me that engineer!" At this, God replies, "Satan, you know you're not supposed to have an engineer. Send him back up to us or I'll sue!!" Satan, stifling a chuckle, says "Right, God, and where are you going to get a lawyer?"
