The Life Evaluation Form Hello! And welcome to the afterlife! Yes, I’m sorry you had to find out like this,
but you are dead. As you are standing
here in line, awaiting your final judgement, we hope
you’ll take the time to fill out this form.
Even we here who run the universe are curious to know how well we’re
doing, and we find that this is one of the most effective ways. Don’t worry, it’s completely anonymous. (We know we tell you that He is always
watching, but just this once, She won’t look.) If you aren’t carrying a pen or pencil,
just ask the angel who gave you this, and he or she will gladly give you
one. Have fun and enjoy eternity! Section 1: Personal
