A Jamaican and a Trinidadian, waiting at the pearly gates, strike up a conversation.

How did you die?' the Trinidadian man asked the Jamaican.

I froze to death mon, said the Jamaican.

That's awful! How does it feel to freeze to death? asked the Trinidadian.

Well brother, it was very uncomfortable at first but when the cold hit, my whole body started to shake and I got pain in my fingers and toes. Eventually, it came, a very calm way to die. I got numb and then I just driffed off, like dying in a sleep.

So how did you die Mon?' asked the Jamaican.

I had a heart attack, says the Trinidadian. You see, I did believe my wife was cheating on me, so one day I show up at home unexpectedly. I ran up to the bedroom and found her alone knitting. I ran down to the basement, but no one was hiding there.

I ran up to the second floor, but no one was hiding there either. I ran as fast as I could to the attic, and just as I got there, I had a massive heart attack and died.

The Jamaican man shakes his head. 'Kiss mi neck!' he says.

'What do you mean?' asks the Trinidadian.

'If you had just checked the freezer, the two of us would still be alive!!!
