The Ducks

Three women died together in an accident and went to heaven. When they got there, St. Peter said, "We only have one rule here in heaven...don't step on the ducks."

So they entered heaven, and sure enough, there were ducks all over the place. It was almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they tried their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally stepped on one. Along came St. Peter with the ugliest man she had ever seen. St. Peter chained them together and said, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!"

The next day, the second woman accidentally stepped a duck.  Along came St. Peter, who never missed a thing, and with him was another extremely ugly man. He chained them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.

The third woman had observed all this, and not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, she was very, VERY careful where she stepped.  She managed to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter came up to her with the most handsome man she had ever laid eyes on--very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, and thin.  

St. Peter chained them together without saying a word. The woman remarked, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?"

The guy replied, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck!"
