Just been browsing the FSTDT archives and came across something that inspired this little thought.
What do all of you who are 'saved' expect to do when you get to your heaven? After all, eternity is a long time, a kind of infinity if the advertising's anything to go by. Even if we take eternity simply to mean until the end of the Universe, that's still a hell of a lot of hours to fill. How do you imagine doing that? Perpetual sudoku?
Incidentally, the corollary question doesn't really apply, since we hellbound heathens apparently have a full itinerary mapped out for our eternities; what with all that torture and fire and hanging out with history's great thinkers.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
