Final edition of IN THE BEGINNING with GOD and SATAN.

Another QUOTE from "The Quotable Bitch" - this one by actress Susan Sarandon: "I'm tired of being labeled anti-American because I ask questions."

More HUMOR today: This is my final edition of IN THE BEGINNING with GOD and SATAN.

GOD created a light, fluffy white cake, named it "Angel Food Cake." and said, "It is good. SATAN then created chocolate cake and named it "Devil's Food."
God then brought forth running shoes so that HIS children might lose extra pounds. And SATAN gave cable TV with a remote control so MAN would not have to toil changing the channels. And MAN and WOMAN laughed and cried before the flickering blue lights and gained pounds.
Then GOD brought forth the potato, naturally low in fat and brimming with nutrition. And SATAN peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And MAN and WOMAN gained pounds.
GOD then gave lean beef so that MAN and WOMAN might consume fewer calories and still satisfy their appetite. And SATAN created McDonald's and its 99-cent double cheeseburger. Then said, "You want fried with that?" And MAN and WOMAN replied, "Yes! And super size them!" And SATAN said, "It is good." And MAN and WOMAN went into cardiac arrest.
GOD sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.
Then SATAN created HMOs.

GRATITUDE today: When writing my gratitude journal two years ago I wrote the following on February 14, 2009.

"I'm not going to go into the history of Valentine's Day other than to say it originated in the Roman Empire in the third century. I'm grateful for this day because, every year, it makes me think and reflect about the fact Ruth Ann is the one and only true love of my life. Nothing more needs to be said."
