The student asked this of his teacher, "Is there really such a thing as heaven and hell?

"Often, they are the same place at the same time."

"But, teacher, how can that be?"

"Have you been to Wrigley Field?" queried the teacher of his baseball loving student.

"Of course, teacher, many times."

"Then you know that an afternoon at Wrigley can be heaven. Before the game begins you are a witness to paradise. The blue of the sky, the green of the grass, the sunny warmth of the air. It is heaven."

"Yes, teacher, it is indeed heaven. But when does it become hell?"

"When the Cubs take the field."
