May you be in heaven a half an hour before the Devil knows you're dead.

    A new inmate is puzzled to hear another inmate yelling out the number 72,
after which the other inmates laugh.  Then another inmate yells out another
number, after which the rest of the inmates again laugh.  "What's going on?"
he asks?
    "Well," explains his cell mate, "We've all been here so long that to
simplify things, we've assigned a number to each joke and so now all we have
to do is call out the number of the joke and everyone knows what it stand
for.  For instance, `72' is the joke about the guy who goes into the bar
and..."
    The new inmate likes that joke, so the next night he decides to give it
a try.  "72," he yells.   NOTHING.  So again he yells, "72".  STILL  nothing.
Once more he yells, "72".  Not so much as a chuckle.  "What's wrong?" he
asks his cell mate.
    "Well, some people can tell 'em and some people can't"
