>Once upon a time, God was missing for six days. Eventually Michael the

>God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction, and proudly pointed downwards

>through the clouds, "Look Michael, Look what I've made."

>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, northern

>Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern

>Europe is going to be poor. Over there I've placed a continent of white

>people, and over there is a continent of black people.

>Balance in all things "God continued pointing to different countries. "This

>one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in

>ice."

>The Archangel, impressed by God"s work, then pointed to a beautiful land

>mass and said, "what's that one?"

>

>"Ah," said God... " that's Washington State, the most glorious place on

>earth. There are beautiful streams, hills, and forests. The people from

>Washington State are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent and

>humorous,and they are going to be found traveling the world. They will be

>extremely sociable, hardworking, 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 would be balance!"

>

>God smiled, "Wait until you see the idiots I put in the other Washington."
