Did you hear the one about this summer’s weather?

A curious fellow died one day and found himself waiting
in the long line for judgment. As he stood there, he noticed that
some souls were allowed to march right through the pearly gates into
Heaven. Others, though, were led over to Satan, who threw them into the
burning pit. But every so often, instead of hurling the poor soul into the
fire, Satan would toss them off to one side into a small pile.

After watching Satan do this several times, the fellow's curiosity got the best of him. So he strolled over to ask Satan what he was doing. "Excuse me, Mr. Prince of Darkness," he said. "I'm waiting in line for judgment, and I couldn't help wondering—why are you tossing those people aside instead of flinging them into the Fires of Hell with the others?"

"Ah, those," Satan said with a groan. "They're all from Vermont . . . they're still too wet to burn.
