[alberg30] Balance

[George Dinwiddie]

John,

I thought you'd appreciate this joke:

 Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for six
 days.
 
 Eventually, Michael the archangel found him, resting on the seventh
 day.  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."
 
 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; the  Middle East over there will
 be a hot 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 andcovered in ice."
 
 The Archangel, impressed by Gods work, then pointed to a large land
 mass in the top corner and asked, "What's that one?"
 
 "Ah," said God.  "That's Canada, the most glorious place on Earth.
 There's beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, streams and an exquisite
 coast-line.  The people from Canada 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.  I'm also going to give them super-human, undefeatable ice
 hockey players who will be admired and feared by all who come across
 them."
 
 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 loud-mouth bastards I'm
 putting next to them."
