And now, you'll know "The Rest of the Story"

God Created Colorado ...


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 Colorado , the most glorious place on earth. There are
beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, and
plains. The people from Colorado 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 , DC . Wait
till you see the idiots I put there."

The sad thing is the geography around D.C. is beautiful. Most people don't even know of the Great Falls. :D Now the problems is that all States in the U.S. keep sending their village idiots to the place! #-o

Amen to that too. The upper Potomac River is some beautiful country, particularly around Shepherdstown/Harper's Ferry, WV.
