Billy Bob constantly argued with his wife over everything and lost every time. At the behest of his wife who was fed up with his continual arguing, he began attending a church with her in east Texas. It never went well -- before he left the church, he would always get in an argument with the minister, followed by another with his wife on the way home. This continued for some time until, one rainy Sunday, their car skidded into a tree in the midst of their argument.
Billy Bob died instantly and found himself in hell and he argued with the Devil that he certainly didn't belong there. Knowing his history, the Devil told him, "You have as much of chance of getting out of here as winning an argument with your wife!"
The Devil then proceeded to put Billy Bob into a 120 degree cell. The next day, the Devil made his rounds and saw Billy Bob sitting there just as happy as could be. When the Devil asked Billy Bob why was he so comfortable, he responded, "I am from deep East Texas. This is nothing to me."
The Devil then moved Billy Bob to a 180 degree room, sure that it would make him miserable. On his next rounds, however, the Devil still found Billy Bob to be as happy as he was the day before. This made the Devil furious and he again asked why he was so comfortable. Billy Bob responded, "Like I said before, I am from deep East Texas. This is nothing to me."
So the Devil decided to reverse tactics and he moved Billy Bob to a cell that was 10 degrees below zero. On the next day the Devil was making his rounds and was astonished to find Billy Bob happier than ever! So the Devil sighed with defeat and asked him why he was so happy.
Billy Bob responded, "What was the last thing my wife said to me before the car skidded?"
The Devil bowed his head in a dejected nod, "The only chance you'd have of winning an argument would be on a cold day in hell -- and that's something you'll never see."
That's good.
