I've never found heaven, for example, a particularly interesting place to go.
In fact, I take the view that God, in his infinite wisdom,
didn't bother to spring for two joints-heaven and hell.
They're the same place,
but heaven is when you get everything you want
and you meet Mummy and Daddy and your best friends
and you all have a hug and a kiss and play your harps.
Hell is the same place-no fire and brimstone-but they just all pass by
and don't see you.
There's nothing, no recognition.
You're waving, "It's me, your father," but you're invisible.
You're on a cloud, you've got your harp, but you can't play with nobody
because they don't see you.
That's hell.
