Queenslander!!!!

Cricket Web: All-Time Legend
Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for six days. Eventually, Michael the archangel found him on the seventh day resting. He enquired of God, "Where have you been?" God pointed downwards through the clouds.
"Look Michael, look what I've made" said God.
Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said,
"What is it?"
"Its a planet," replied God, "and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to call it Earth and its 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 Queensland, the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful people, impressive towns; it is the home of the world's finest artists, musicians, writers, thinkers, explorers and politicians. The people from Queensland 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 ******s, I'm putting next
to them in New South Wales." :D :D :D :D :D

So better than my other previous attempts at humour?

You shouldn't be disadvantaged by where you were born, that's one of the things in life you don't have control over, however, at least you have seen the light and have choosen to suppor the corret team. Loyalty is in the heart.

I'd say the same. But I think my English blood has been diluted enough by now that I can consider myself a true Queenslander! :cool:

And I wouldn't want it any other way!

You are only New South Welshman by place of birth and nothing else! Don't let anyone tell you different. It is all about the heart - if you think Qld can win from any position, like 30 seconds to go and down by 40, then you are a TRUE QUEENSLANDER.

At least I don't have the dillema (sp?) of choosing which is better- England or N.S.W. :p

I don't envy your situation at all. However, I do have to encounter a friend who likes to tip with his head and not his heart when it comes to Origin. Now that is the lowest act by a Queenslander. And he doesn't understand why I don't talk to him between May & July....Go figure. :-O

Amen to that brother. :cool:

Oh God! Now I sound like Ash! :p

At least the last two times I've been to Lang Park for Origin I've been able to tease the Blues supporters on the bus home.

...it would be all that much better if they sold beer on the buses back too, cause sometimes the bottleos (is that how it is spelt?) are closed when you get back.

I don't usually forgive Blues for anything, but because Blewy is such a nice bloke and puts in a lot of effort I am willing to consider it. :p
