"Albania, Albania, man sheds his waste on thee." joke

Enver Hoxha, dictator of Albania, dies and due to a bureaucratic mixup
is sent to socialist heaven. Of course, once there he has to stand in line
as St.Peter is interviewing the candidates for socialist heaven ahead of him.
Ludwig von Beethoven is first.
St.Peter says: "Who are you?"
Beethoven says: "Eh ?"
St.Peter waves his arms and cures Beethoven and says: "Who are you ?"
Beethoven says: "Ludwig von Beethoven"
St.Peter says: "Do you have any papers?"
Beethoven says: "No."
St.Peter says: "Then you will have to prove it."
Beethoven says: "Give me a choir of angels."
St.Peter calls the angels forward and watches Beethoven conduct the Ninth.
St.Peter smiles and says: "Wonderful. Welcome, Ludwig."
Beethoven goes in.
Shakespeare is next.
St.Peter says: "Who are you ?"
Shakespeare says: "William Shakespeare"
St.Peter says: "Do you have any papers?
Shakespeare says: "No."
St.Peter says: "Then you will have to prove it."
Shakespeare says: "Give me a pen and paper."
St.Peter does and watches Shakespeare write a new sonnet.
St.Peter smiles and says: "Wonderful. Welcome, William."
Shakespeare goes in.
Finally it is Hoxha's turn.
St.Peter says: "Who are you ?"
Hoxha says: "Enver Hoxha, General Secretary of the Communist Party of
Albania"
St.Peter says: "Do you have any papers?
Hoxha says: "No."
St.Peter says: "Then you will have to prove it,
just like Beethoven and Shakespeare."
Hoxha says: "Beethoven... Shakespeare? Who are they ?"
St.Peter says: "Wonderful. Welcome, General Secretary."
Hoxha goes in.
