The musical is done now and I'm trying to take it easy....as much as I can, that is.
Take of yourself sweetie; hope you're feeling better soon.
And God Created Wisconsin ...
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, “This place
will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice.”
“This place will be full of mountains and hills, while this one will be very
flat.”
The Archangel , impressed by God’s work, then pointed to one land area and said,
“What’s that one?”
“That’s Wisconsin , the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful rivers
and streams, lakes, forests, and hills. The people from Wisconsin 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. Champions shall come from here!”
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 Minnesota , wait till you see the clowns I put there.
For entertainment, they will have a football team with a quarterback so old
that hes a grandfather. They will wear purple and play in a domed stadium.”
Michael inquisitively asked, “Why a domed stadium?”
God chuckled and said, “You see Michael . . . even I don’t want to watch them
play football.”
