A young couple, engaged to be married, die in a horrible car accident. The two ascend to Heaven, and wait at the Pearly Gates for St. Peter to show up. While the wait, the speculate a bit, wondering if they can still get married in Heaven.
Pete finally shows up, and gives them both piles of paperwork to fill out. Before they start, the couple ask Pete if they can get married in Heaven. He gives them a blank stare for a moment, and says, "Well, I don't know. No one has ever asked before. You two start on your paperwork, I'll go see if I can find out."
So the two get settled in, filling out form after form. Time passes. Eventually they finish (over a month has passed at this point), and start talking about marriage again. They begin to realize that this is for eternity. Suppose it doesn't work out?
So, when Pete finally returns (it's been close to three months since he first left), he tells them, "Yes, as it seems, you can get married in Heaven."
So the two now ask, "Well, what if it doesn't work out? Can we get a divorce in Heaven?"
St. Peter then gets very angry, and throws his clipboard to the ground. When the couple asks "What's wrong?"
"Well, it took me three months to find a priest up here. Do you have any idea how long it'll take me to find a lawyer?"
