A guy from Illinois dies and is sent to Hell. He had not been a nice man
his entire life.
The devil puts him to work breaking up rocks with a sledge hammer.
To make it worse, he cranks up the temperature and the humidity.
After a couple of days, the devil checks in on his victim to see if he
is suffering adequately. The devil is aghast as the Illinoisan is
happily swinging his hammer and whistling a happy tune.
The devil walks up to him and says, "I don't understand this. I've
turned the heat way up, it's humid, you're cru****ng rocks; why are you
so happy?"
The man, with a big smile, looks at the devil and replies, "This is
great! It reminds me of August in Illinois. Hot, humid, a good place to
work. It reminds me of home. This is fantastic!"
The devil, extremely perplexed, walks away to ponder the man's remarks.
Then he decides to drop the temperature, send down a driving rain and
torrential wind.
Soon, Hell is a wet, muddy mess.
Walking in mud up to his knees with dust blowing into his eyes, the man
is happily slogging through the mud pu****ng a wheelbarrow full of
crushed rocks.
Again, the devil asks how he can be happy in such conditions.
The man replies, "This is great! Just like April in Illinois. It reminds
me of working out in the yard with spring planting!"
The devil is now completely baffled but more determined to make him
suffer. He makes the temperature plummet. Suddenly Hell is blanketed in
snow and ice. Confident that this will surely make him unhappy, the
devil checks in on him.
He is again aghast at what he sees. The man is dancing, singing, and
twirling his sledgehammer as he cavorts in glee.
"How can you be so happy? Don't you know its 40 below zero!?" screams
the devil.
Jumping up and down, he throws a snowball at the devil and yells,
"Hell's frozen over! This means the Cubs won the World Series!"
