Reminds me of the story of the pilot's wife who went to heaven and has the standard interview with St Peter.

She says, "Look Peter, I have spent my life surrounded by pilots and their mates who are pilots, I have one request; DO NOT put me in heaven with any PILOTS!"

St Peter smiles and says "No worries, we have large areas of Heaven that are designated non-pilot zones for those very reasons, I will put you in one of those."

She smiles her thanks, enters the Pearly Gates and then through a second gate into heaven itself. The first thing she sees is a man dressed in aviator goggles and flight suit. He is preflighting a golden Tiger Moth.

She turns in a fury to St Peter. "What did I say about no PILOTS!"

St Peter smiles apologetically."I am sorry," he says, "that's actually God. He just likes to pretend he is a pilot!"
