BLESSED MONTANA
On the sixth day God turned to the Archangel
Gabriel and said: 'Today, I am
going to create a land called Montana .
It will be a land of outstanding
natural beauty; a land of beautiful lakes,
each one full of fish.
It shall have tall majestic pines, peacefully
flowing rivers, landscapes full
of Buffalo , tall grass, and eagles, beautiful
blue skies, forests full of bear, elk
and moose, rich farmland and fair skinned
people.
God continued, 'I shall make the land rich in
resources so as to make the inhabitants prosper
and they shall be known as a most friendly
people, people who practice being nice every
day.'
But Lord,' asked Gabriel, 'don't you think
you are being too generous to these Montana
people?'
'Not really,' replied God 'just wait and see
the winters I am going to give them.'
