Lie Clocks

    A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him.

    He asked, 'What are all those clocks for?'

    St. Peter answered, 'Those are Lie-Clocks, everyone on earth has one. Every time you lie the hands on your clock move.'

    'Oh,' said the man. 'Whose clock is that?'

    'That's Mother Teresa's. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie.'

    'Incredible,' said the man. 'And whose clock is that one?'

    St. Peter responded, 'That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life.'

    'Where's Bertie Ahern's clock?' asked the man finally. 'Bertie's clock is in God's office, he's using it as a ceiling fan.'

    haha. Probably originally an American joke about Nixon or somebody like that.

    Probably, but it suits Berti better than Nixon.
