this was just sent to me by email...reminded of mu lovely MH & co...

 

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 but cold and

 

harsh while southern Europ e is going to be

 

poor but sunny and pleasant.

 

"I have made some lands abundant in water

 

and other lands parched deserts.

 

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 mass and said

 

"What's that one?"

 

"Ah," said God. "That's TEXAS --

 

the most glorious place on earth.

 

There are beautiful beaches, streams, hills,

 

and forests.

 

The people from TEXAS are going to be handsome,

 

modest, intelligent and humorous and they

 

are going to be found traveling the world.

 

They will be extremely sociable, hardworking

 

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 put in AUSTIN .."

A TEXAS BLESSING

Note: If you are not a resident of TEXAS or

 

never have lived in the hot, humid Southwest,

 

you may not understand the weight of this blessing!

 

Bless this house , oh Lord, we cry.

 

Please keep it cool in mid-July.

Bless the walls where termites dine,

While ants and roaches march in time.

 

Bless our yard where spiders pass

Fire ant castles in the grass.

 

Bless the garage, a home to please

Carpenter beetles, ticks and fleas.

Bless the love bugs, two by two,

the gnats and mosquitoes that feed on you.

 

Millions of creatures that fly or crawl,

in TEXAS , Lord, you've put them all!

But this is home, and here we'll stay,

So thank you Lord, for insect spray.

HOLD IT............

 

there's more....................

 

YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN TEXAS

 

IN AUGUST WHEN

 

The birds have to use potholders to

 

pull worms out of the ground.

 

The trees are whistling for the dogs.

 

The best parking place is determined by

 

shade instead of distance.

 

Hot water now comes out of both taps.

 

You can make sun tea instantly.

 

You learn that a seat belt buckle makes

 

a pretty good branding iron!

 

The temperature drops below 95 and you

 

feel a little chilly.

 

You discover that in August it only takes

 

2 fingers to steer your car.

 

You discover that you can get sunburned

 

through your car window.

 

You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

 

You break into a sweat the instant you step

 

outside at 7:30 a.m.

Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I

 

get knocked out and end up lying on

 

the pavement and cook to death?"

 

You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

 

The potatoes cook underground, so all you

 

have to do is pull one out and add butter,

 

salt and pepper.

Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed

 

ice to keep them from laying boiled eggs.

 

The cows are giving evaporated milk.

 

Ah, what a place to call home.

God Bless Our State

I'm watching an infomercial on break... it's about a work out body sculpting program I might try. It's different workouts working different muscles in different ways so it keeps your muscles guessing, never settling into a routine (this is proven to be the best way to work out and get results) it's called P90X...

 

Anyways one of the exercises looked like they were muching on the carpet. Literally. Floor carpet. No, not the other kind. It just looked funny.
