Blessed Montana

For those of us who've been there:

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 lakes, each one full of fish. It shall have tall majestic pines, peacefully flowing rivers, landscapes full of buffalo, tall grass, eagles, beautiful blue skies, forests full of bear, elk and moose, and it will be rich in farmland."

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 until you see the winters I am going to give them."

Blessed be the winters...for it keeps the rif-raf out!
