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