Three men died on Christmas eve and were met by Saint Peter at the Pearly Gtaes.  "In honor of the season, "Saint Peter said, "you must each possess something that symbolizes Christmas to get into heaven on this holy day.  The first man fumbled thru his pocket and pulled out a lighter.  He flicked it on. "It represents a holy candle, "he said.  You may pass thru the Pearly gates,"Saint Peter said.  The second man reached into his pocketand pulled out a set of keys.  He shook them and said, "They're bells."  Saint Peter said. " You may pass thru the Paeraly gates.  The third man started searching desperately thru his pockets and finally pulled out a pair of womens panties.  "What do these symbolize?" saint Peter asked.  The man replied, " They're Carol's."
