46. Purgatory.

Actually, I was hoping for 42, the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

It is said that W. C. Fields was pretty indifferent (if not downright hostile) to religion. While on his death-bed, a friend came to visit and found him thumbing through a copy of the Bible.

"I'm a bit surprised, Bill," said the friend. "I didn't think you believed in that sort of thing. What are you doing?"

Said Fields, "I'm looking for loopholes."
