The Big Bang
I was playing Chinese Checkers with God the other day.
He cheats, you know.
He says the Yankees are going to lay claim to the World Series again.
My Red Sox just can't catch a break.
As long as we agree that Maldini is the best defensive player in the history of soccer
and Christian Vieri is a hottie,
We should be okay.
"Seriously though, why *people*, of all things?"
He pauses.
"Huh. Never really thought about it.
It's kind of like….
You know how some people will go to monster truck rallies to see things crash?"
I have to laugh.
"The world is your monster truck rally?"
"Hey, don't knock the metaphor, it works.
They're both ludicrous and fun,
And the people who sneer at them are taking things way too seriously.
Besides, explosions are cool."
"Explosions *are* cool."
