GOD AND THE BIKER
A man was riding his Harley 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,
I will grant you one wish.'
The biker pulled over and said, 'Build a bridge to Hawaii so
I can ride over anytime I want.'
The Lord said, 'That request is materialistic, think of the
enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking; the supports
required to reach the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete
and steel it would take! It will nearly exhaust several natural
resources. I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your
desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of
something that could possibly help mankind.'
The biker thought about it for a long time.
Finally, he said, 'Okay, I wish that I, and all men, could
understand our wives; I want to know how she feels inside,
what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment,
why she cries, what she means when she says 'nothing's wrong',
and how I can make a woman truly happy.'
And the Lord replied, 'You want two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?'
I love it.
