Ahem.
Ahem.
There's no such thing as "political correctness". The phrase you're looking for is "Common Decency".

Rich man, distraught over knowing he's soon to die and wouldn't be able to take wealth he spent his entire life accumulating with him, makes a deal with god after beseeching him in prayer. He can bring one suitcase with him.
So he clears out his bank accounts and buys gold bullion bars, then fills a large suitcase with wheels with the gold.
Later when he dies, St. Peter stops him at the gate. He has been told about gods deal, but curious about what the guy wanted to bring with him so desperately, he opens the bag to take a peek.
"You brought....pavement??"
