0My Kenyan mate once told me a Kenyan joke.02br 00A man dies and is sent to Hell. There he finds different Hell for different countries and decides to stick to the least painful one to spend his eternity. He approaches USA Hell and asks, "How do you treat sinners?". He is told, "First, we put you on an electric chair for a few hours. Then we lay you on a bed of nails for another few hours. Finally, a USA devil comes to whip you all day long."02br 00The man thinks that it is too painful and so he moves on. He stops by Italian Hell, Russian Hell, French Hell and hundreds more. To his dismay, they all sound the same.... Then he comes to the Kenyan Hell and is amazed by a long queue of people waiting to get inside!02br 00He asks a man on the queue, "How do they treat sinners here?". The stranger tells him,"First, they put you on an electric chair for a few hours. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another few hours. Finally, a Kenyan devil comes to whip you all day long." Perplexed by the answer as it sounds so familiar, he asks further, "Why so many people want to get in?"02br 00The stranger then whispers to him,"Because they never have electricity so the electric chair is good to sit on. The nails were paid for but are never delivered by the contractors, so the bed is comfortable. And the Kenyan devil used to be a civil servant, so he comes to sign in and goes back home for other business!"0-
