A man and his dog were walking along a road. The man was enjoying the
scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was
dead.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



He remembered dying, and that the dog walking beside him had been dead for
years. He wondered where the road was leading
them.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>




After a while, they came to a high, white stone wall along one side of the
road. It looked like fine
marble.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



At the top of a long hill, it was broken by a tall arch that glowed in the
sunlight.When he was standing before it he saw a magnificent gate in the
arch that looked like mother-of-pearl, and the street that led to the gate
looked like pure gold. He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got
closer, he saw a man at a desk to one
side.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>




When he was close enough, he called out, "Excuse me, where are we?"?
"This is Heaven, sir," the man
answered.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"Wow! Would you happen to have some water?" the man asked.
"Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have some ice water brought right
up." <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>




The man gestured, and the gate began to open. "Can my friend," gesturing
toward his dog, "come in, too?" the traveler asked.? I'm sorry, sir, but we
don't accept pets." <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



The man thought a moment and then turned back toward the road and continued
the way he had been going with his
dog.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>




After another long walk, and at the top of another long hill, he came to a
dirt road leading through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been
closed. There was no fence.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and
reading a book. "Excuse me!" he called to the man. "Do you have any water?"?
"Yeah, sure, there's a pump over there, come on
in."<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"How about my friend here?" the traveler gestured to the dog.? "There should
be a bowl by the pump." They went through the gate, and sure enough, there
was an old-fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside
it.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



The traveler filled the water bowl and took a long drink himself, then he
gave some to the dog. <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



When they were full, he and the dog walked back toward the man who was
standing by the tree.? <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"What do you call this place?" the traveler
asked.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"This is Heaven," he answered.<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"Well, that's confusing," the traveler said. "The man down the road said
that was Heaven, too." <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly gates? Nope. That's
hell." <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like
that?"<http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html>



"No, we're just happy that they screen out the folks who would leave their
best friends <http://funlok.com/index.php/story/the-bowl.html> behind."
