> 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

> "Balance?" inquired Michael, still confused.

> God explained, pointing to  different parts of Earth, "For example,
Northern

> Europe is going to be poor. Over there I've placed a continent of white

extremely

> The Archangel, impressed by Gods work, then pointed to a large land mass

> "Ah," said God.  "That's Canada, the most glorious place on Earth. There's

The

will

> God replied wisely. "Wait until you see the loud-mouth bastards I'm
putting
