There once was a rich man who was near death. He had so much wealth and was sad he had to leave it behind.
The man implores God to see if He might bend the rules.
The angel appears and informs the man that God has decided to allow him to take one suitcase with him. Overjoyed, the man gathers his largest suitcase and fills it with pure gold bars and places it beside his bed.
Soon afterward the man dies and shows up at the Gates of Heaven and greets St. Peter.
St. Peter checks with God and comes back saying, "You're right. You are allowed one carry-on bag, but I'm supposed to check its contents before letting it through."
St. Peter opens the suitcase to inspect the worldly items that the man found too precious to leave behind and exclaims,
"What You brought pavement?!!!"
