Billy
was riding his bike on a highway along a
California beach when suddenly the sky clouded
above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord
said:
"Because
you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways,
well maybe some ways or at least you thought
about it, well whatever, I will grant you a
wish."
Billy
pulled over and said: "Build a bridge to
Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I want."
The
Lord said, "Your request is materialistic. I
can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your
desire for worldly things. Think of the enormous
challenges for that kind of undertaking. The
supports required would reach the bottom of the
Pacific Ocean! The concrete and steel would be in
the trillions of tons! It would nearly exhaust
several natural resources. Take a little more
time and think of something that wouldn't be so
difficult."
Billy
Boy thought about it for a long time. Finally he
said, "Lord, I wish that Hillary would
become president. I want to know how she feels
inside, what she thinks the meaning of
"is" is, why she hates President Bush
so much, why we democrats are so stupid, and how
can I make all my lovers truly happy."
The
Lord hesitated then replied, "You want two
lanes or four lanes on that bridge?"

think not!)
