"NORTHERNERS
>Once upon a time, in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for six
days.
>Eventually, Archangel Michael found him on the seventh day,
resting.
>
>He enquired of God,
>
>'Where have you been?'
>
>God
pointed downwards through the clouds. 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
great place of balance.'
>
>'Balance?' inquired Michael, still
confused.
>
>God explained, pointing down to different parts of the
Earth.
>
>'For example, North America will be a place of great
opportunity and wealth, while South
>America is going to be poor; the
Middle East over there will be a hot spot, and Russia will be a cold
spot.
>
>Over there I've placed a continent of white people and over
there is a continent of black people.'
>
>God continued, pointing to
the different countries.
>
>This one will be extremely hot and arid
while this one will be very cold and covered in ice.'
>
>The Archangel
, impressed by God's work, then pointed to another area of land and
asked,
>
>'What's that?'
>
>'Ah,' said God. That's the North of England
, the most glorious place on earth.
>
>
>There are beautiful people,
seven Premiership football teams in the North West alone, and many
impressive cities;
>
>it is the home of the world's finest artists,
musicians, writers, thinkers, explorers and politicians.
>
>The people
from the North of England are going to be modest, intelligent and
humorous and they're going to be found travelling the world. They'll be
extremely sociable, hard-working and high-achieving, and they will be
known throughout
>the world as speakers of truth.'
>
>Michael gasped in
wonder and admiration but then proclaimed,
>
>'What about balance God,
you said there will be BALANCE!'
>
>God replied very wisely,
>
>
>
>'Wait till you see the bunch of tossers I'm putting down South to
Govern the country !'
