Subject: An engineer in hell
An engineer dies and reports to the Pearly Gates.

Saint Peter checks his dossier and, not seeing his name there, accidentally sends him to Hell.

It doesn’t take long before the engineer becomes rather dissatisfied with the level of comfort in Hell.

He soon begins to design and build improvements. Shortly thereafter, Hell has air conditioning,
flush toilets and escalators. Needless to say, the engineer is a pretty popular guy.

One day, God calls Satan and says: “So, how are things in Hell?”

Satan replies: “Hey, things are going great. We’ve got air conditioning, flush toilets, and escalators.
And there’s no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next.”

“What!” God exclaims: “You’ve got an engineer? That’s a mistake – he should never have been sent to Hell. Send him back to me.”

“Not a chance,” Satan replies: “I like having an engineer on the staff, and I’m keeping him!”

God insists: “Send him back or I’ll sue.”

Satan laughs uproariously and answers: “Yeah, right! And where are you going to get a lawyer?tumblr_mc078mxVmk1qkx8q9o1_1280

By Dr. Robert Lee Oksenholt · October 10, 2026

Dr. Bob's sixth step for aging stronger after 60 is protected sleep: a consistent bedtime, screens down before bed, and dim red night lights that won't suppress melatonin. The motion-activated lights also light the path to the bathroom, helping prevent the falls that put older adults at risk of hip fractures.
