> One day, their good health didn't help when they went on a rare
> vacation and their plane unfortunately crashed, sending them off to

> inside. He took them to a beautiful mansion, furnished in gold and
> fine silks, with a fully stocked kitchen and a waterfall in the master

> like of whatever you like, and you will never get fat or sick.
> This is heaven!"

> "Never again. All you do is enjoy yourself."

> The old man glared at his wife and said, "You and your f------ bran
> muffins. We could have been here twenty years ago!"
