Don't take it personal. Groet, Frank
Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went
missing for six days. Eventually, Michael the Arch-Angel found him
on the seventh day, resting. He inquired of God, "Where have you been?"
God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly
pointed downwards through the clouds
"Look Michael, look what I've made." said God.
Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said,
"What is it?"
"It's a planet," replied God, "and I've put LIFE
on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going
to be a great place of balance".
Balance?" inquired Michael, still confused.
God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth.
"For example, North America will be a place of great
opportunity and wealth while South America is going to be poor;
the Middle East over there will be a hot spot
and Russia will be a cold spot.
Over there I've placed a continent of white people
and over there is a continent of black people,"
God continued, pointing to different countries.
This one will be extremely hot and arid while
this one will be very cold and covered in ice."
The Archangel, impressed by God's work, then
pointed to a small land mass and said "What's that one?"
Ah ," said God. "That's New Zealand,
the most glorious place on Earth.
There are beautiful lakes, rivers, streams and hills.
The people from New Zealand are going to be modest,
intelligent and humorous
and they're going to be found traveling the world.
They'll be extremely sociable, hard-working and
high-achieving,and they will be known throughout the world as diplomats
and carriers of peace."
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed,
"What about balance, God? you said there will be BALANCE!"
God replied wisely
"Wait until you see the wankers I'm putting next to them. I call them
Australians!!!"
