In The Beginning, God created the Heaven and the Earth.

And the Earth was without form, and void,

And darkness was upon the face of the deep.

And the Devil said, It doesn't get any better than this.

And so God created Man in His own image; Male and female.

And God looked upon Man and Woman

And saw that they were lean and fit.

And God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach

and green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would

live long and healthy lives.

And so the Devil created Mcs

And Mcs brought forth the 79-cent double cheeseburger.

And the Devil said to Man, You want fries with that?

And Man said, Super size them.

And Man gained five pounds.

And so God created the healthful yogurt,

That Woman might keep her figure

But the Devil brought forth chocolate.

And Woman gained five pounds.

And God said, Try my crispy fresh salad.

And the Devil brought forth Ben and Jerry's.

And Woman gained 10 pounds.

And God said, Why doth thou eatest thus? I have sent thee heart-

healthy vegetables, And olive oil with which to cook them.

But the Devil brought forth chicken fried steak so big it needed its

own platter. And Man gained 10 pounds

And his bad cholesterol went through the roof.

And so God brought forth running shoes.

And Man resolved to lose those extra pounds.

And the Devil brought forth cable TV with remote control so Man would

not have to toil to change channels between ESPN and ESPN2.

And Man gained another 20 pounds.

And so God brought forth the potato, A vegetable, naturally low in

fat and brimming with nutrition.

And the Devil peeled off the healthful skin, And sliced the starchy

center into chips, And deep-fat fried them.

And the Devil created sour cream dip.

And Man clutched his remote control

And ate the potato chips swaddled in cholesterol.

And the Devil saw and said, It is good.

And Man went into cardiac arrest.

And God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

And the Devil canceled Mans health insurance.

So God showed Woman how to peel the skin off chicken And cook the

nourishing whole grain brown rice.

And the Devil created light beer,

So Man could poison his body, While feeling righteous because he had

to

drink twice as much of the now-insipid brew to get the same buzz.

And Man gained another 10 pounds.

And Woman ventured forth Into the land of Godiva chocolate.

And upon returning asked Man, Do I look fat?

And the Devil said, always tell the truth.

And Man did.

And Woman went out from the presence of Man,

And dwelt in the land of the divorce lawyer

East of the marriage counselor.

And the Devil said, It doesn't get any better than this......
