"AND GOD CREATED MARYLAND"
  
God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel, found him, resting on the seventh day.
 
He inquired, "Where have you been?"
 
God smiled deeply and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, "Look, Michael.. Look what I've made."
 
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 place to test Balance."
 
"Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm still confused."
 
God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth.

"For example, northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern Europe is going to be poor. Over here I've placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people.  

Balance in all things."
 
God continued pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."
 
The Archangel , impressed by God's work, then pointed to a land area and said, "What's that one?"
 
"That's Maryland, the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, and plains. The people from Maryland are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and producers of good things"
 
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what about balance, God? You said there would be balance."
 
God smiled, "Right next to Maryland is Washington, D. C. Wait till you see the idiots there."

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading".

God made Maryland, but the politicians are ruining it.  If you live in the Maryland counties around Washington, D.C., you are going to pay very high state and local taxes.

Eastern shore is quite suppressed.  Mostly Agriculture or tourist income.  Tourist income is hurting Big Time cause of the economy!  Why would they want to split other than the farmers trying to get away from Maryland's poor support of Farmers and low Ag tax breaks.

   Maryland proper is too liberal for them plus,as with Western Md,they're completely forgotten about.  Guess they're willing to take a chance on thier own.  This is nothing new and won't happen.

 Yeah, a little piece of heaven for cheap.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.
