Noah in 2008

[yamahonkawazuki]

In the year 2008, the Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in the
United States , and said, 'Once again, the earth has become wicked and
over-populated, and I see the end of all flesh before me.

Build another Ark and save 2 of every living thing along with a few
good humans'

He gave Noah the blueprints, saying, 'You have 6 months to build the
Ark before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights.'

Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his yard
- but no Ark.

'Noah!' He roared, 'I'm about to start the rain! Where is the Ark ?'

'Forgive me, Lord,' begged Noah, 'but things have changed. I needed a
building permit. I've been arguing with the inspector about the need for
a sprinkler system. My neighbors claim that I've violated th e neighbo
rh ood zoning laws by building the Ark in my yard and exceeding the
height limitations. We had to go to the Development Appeal Board for a
decision.

Then the Department of Transportation demanded a bond be posted for the
future costs of moving power lines and other overhead obstructions, to
clear the passage for the Ark 's move to the sea. I told them that the
sea would be coming to us, but they would hear nothing of it.

Getting the wood was another problem. There's a ban on cutting local
trees in order to save the spotted owl. I tried to convince the
environmentalists that I needed the wood to save the owls - but no go!

When I started gathering the animals, an animal rights group sued me.

They insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will.
They argued the accommodations were too restrictive, and it was cruel
and inhumane to put so many animals in a confined space.

Then the EPA ruled that I couldn't build the Ark until t hey'd cond
ucted an environmental impact study on your proposed flood.

I'm still trying to resolve a complaint with the Human Rights
Commission on how many minorities I'm supposed to hire for my building
crew.

Immigration and Naturalization are checking the green-card status of
most of the people who want to work.

The trades unions say I can't use my sons. They insist I have to hire
only Union workers with Ark-building experience.

To make matters worse, the IRS seized all my assets, claiming I'm
trying to leave the country illegally with endangered species.

So, forgive me, Lord, but it would take at least 10 years for me to
finish this Ark. '

Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine, and a rainbow
stretched across the sky.  Noah looked up in wonder and asked, 'You mean
you're not going to destroy the world?'

'No,' said the Lord. 'The government beat me to it

Right On!  That's the best I've heard in a while.

[The Buddha]

Those ark builders man, they think they can get away with anything ...
BTW If I were god, I'd start the flood at the government building where much of this crap happened, and heck throw in the HOA in for good measure.
That is what the buddha will do ...
And god isn't going to destroy the world as per christianity, god is going to kick the evil residents of the world out and put good residents in its place. Again the bureau-crazy needs to be high on the list of evil.
Cool.
Buddha.
