And God Created Florida ..


Recommended Posts

God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel,
found him, resting on the seventh day.


He inquired, "Where have you been?"


God smiled deeply 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 place to test Balance."


"Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm 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 here 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 land area
and said, "What's that one?"


"That's Florida, the most glorious place on earth.. There are beautiful
sandy beaches, rivers and streams, lakes and days filled with sunshine.
The people from Florida are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent,
and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be
extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and
producers of good things."


Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what
about balance, God? You said there would be balance."


God smiled, "I will create Washington, D.C. Wait till you see the
idiots I put there".

I'm British and even I know whenever theres a story from the USA that just sounds to stupid to be true it's gotta be Florida.

 

So true.  My experience of Florida first-hand has been amazing, but that's basically just Orlando and Kissimmee.  Now when I read a story about someone doing something either violent, aggressive, stupid, dangerous, bad parenting or such - my first thought is "Florida?" ;)

 

Still love the place and would move there in a heartbeat ;)
