Ray came home one night from a long day at work, slid into bed beside his sleeping wife, and fell into a deep slumber. He awoke before the Pearly Gates, where St. Peter said, 'You died in your sleep, Ray.'

> Ray was stunned. 'I'm dead? No, I can't be! I've got too much to live for. Send me back!'
>*
> St. Peter said, 'I'm sorry, but there's only one way you can go back, and that is as a chicken.'
>*
> Ray was devastated, but begged St. Peter to send him to a farm near his home. The next thing he knew, he was covered with feathers, clucking and pecking the ground.
>*
> A rooster strolled past. 'So, you're the new hen, huh? How's your first day here?'
>*
> 'Not bad,' replied Ray the hen, 'but I have this strange feeling inside. Like I'm gonna explode!'
>*
> 'You're ovulating,' explained the rooster. 'Don't tell me you've never laid an egg before?' 'Never,' said Ray.
>*
> 'Well, just relax and let it happen,' says the rooster. 'It's no big deal. He did, and a few uncomfortable seconds later, out popped an egg! He was overcome with emotion as he experienced motherhood. He soon laid another egg - his joy was overwhelming.
>*
> As he was about to lay his third egg, he felt a smack on the back of his head, and heard.....
>*
> "Ray, wake up! You shit the bed!"
>*
> Getting OLD just ain't what they said it would be!
