A sailor in hades ... nyuk, nyuk

An explosion killed a navy boilerman who had lived a very wild life. He
found himself in Hell.  Being used to stoking fires and extremely hot
temperatures, he found Hell actually quite comfortable.  When Satan went
to check out the new arrival, he found him sitting in his room smiling.
"You like this?", Satan asked.  "Yes, sir", said the sailor, "this feels
like a spring day to me."  Not wanting the new guy to be too
comfortable, Satan turned up the heat a bit.  When he went back the next
day to see how his new arrival was doing, the sailor was still happy; he
hadn`t even broken a sweat.  "I like this kind of weather", he told
Satan.  For the next few days in a row, Satan again turned up the heat,
but each day the Sailor looked as comfortable as ever.
By last Sunday, Satan decided to try something different.  Rather than
turn up the heat even more, he turned it off.  Icicles formed in the
sailor`s room!  When he checked on the guy, the room was icy and he was
shivering, but he had a grin from ear to ear, bigger than ever. Satan
was exasperated!  "Why are YOU so happy?" he demanded from the
sailor. "It`s FREEZING in here!"
"Well, I`m from Denver," said the sailor. "and evidently the Broncos
just won the Super Bowl!"
