Heaven on the Little Screen |

Barbara Wawa’s Tuesday night special will center on the question “Heaven; Where is it, and How Do We Get There.� The Bosh just checked; KLM has a holiday special rate to Hawaii. We can’t promise that St. Peter will be at the Honolulu airport greeting you with a lei, but we can recommend a lovely place that serves a mai tai inside of a fresh coconut.
Included in Ms. Wawa’s guest line-up for this heavenly show is an atheist. Will he say that his idea of heaven is not having to listen to people bitching and moaning about putting the Christ back in Christmas?
In Woody Allen’s “Deconstructing Harry,� Billy Crystal plays the devil, who set up hell because he had found Hollywood too nasty. The Allen alter-ego visits the devil in his air-conditioned office in hell, and sees his father. He pleads with the devil to release the father; in the bargaining over where the dad will go, Allen tries to get him to go to heaven. But the father says: “We’re Jews, we don’t believe in heaven.� “Then where do you want to go?� “To a Chinese restaurant.� Therefore, The Bosh wishes Barbara Wawa a sweet and sour holiday season.
