Satan’s Process

A curious fellow died one day and found himself waiting in the long line for the judgment.
As he stood there he noticed that some souls were allowed to march right through the gates of Heaven while others were led over to Satan who threw them into the burning pit. Every so often, instead of hurling a poor soul into the fire, Satan would toss a soul off to one side into a small pile.
After watching Satan do this several times, the fellow’s curiosity got the better of him. So he strolled over and tapped Satan on the shoulder.
“Excuse me, Prince of Darkness,” he said. “I’m waiting in line for my judgment, but I couldn’t help wondering, why are you tossing those people aside instead of flinging them into the fires of Hell with the others?”
“Ah, those…” Satan said with a groan. “They’re all from Seattle; they’re too wet to burn!”
