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," said God. "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 wealth and opportunity, while southern Europe is going to be poor. Over here I've placed a continent of one people, and over there is a continent of another people. Balance in all things."

God pointed to different countries. "This one will be very 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 Texas, the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, and plains. The people from Texas are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, humorous, but proud 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, yet asked, "But what about balance? You said there would be balance."

God smiled, "I will create Washington, DC. Wait 'till you see the fools I put there."

Now, about Abbott.

Hold that thought. This thread is on the Chit-Chat, not the Political posts.

Exactly...but, that last punch line might'a pushed it over the line

I did not notice that this was chit chat, after all he was extolling the virtues of Texas. That’s always fighting words.

Yeah, if you're from Oklahoma.

I'm ready anytime you are. Guns, knives, axes, clubs, or fists? Your choice. Don't say words either! Cause without blood, and bruises, it ain't a fight to a Texan!

Big dog

Barbecue

I doubt Arch will have any problem with BBQ.

I certainly don't.

Since he requires blood and bruises, I’ll probably have to wrestle a razorback to get the meat.

Moldy, just this past Wednesday, at our monthly Bosque Country Veteran's luncheon, I had BBQ pulled pork.
