Creation of Wyoming

[MrTitleist]

Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God was 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. And over there I've placed a continent of white people,
while over here 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 large land
mass and said, "What's that one?"
"Ah," said God. "That's Wyoming, the most glorious place on earth. There
are beautiful lakes, rivers, sunrises, sunsets, rolling hills, high
mountains with snow covered peaks, open prairie, geysers, hot springs,
water falls, monumental rock formations, abundant wildlife, excellent
fly-fishing streams, pure white snow in the winter, white fluffy clouds,
blue skies year-round, and a place where a person can see millions of
stars in the sky at night.***

God continued,

The people from Wyoming are going to be modest,
intelligent and humorous and they are going to be found traveling the
world. They will 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 would be balance!"

God replied wisely, "Wait until you see the idiots I'm putting around
them in Idaho, Colorado, South Dakota, Utah, and Montana."
