An-Wahr

Hilarious "conversation with God" about ANWR drilling on Watchblog. The divine comedy points out the basic reason for drilling there:

Me: But there is much consternation and many wails still about the thing called tundra. It shall be scarred! Is the tundra not a precious creature or item like Thy sacred Seraphim, or Thy sacred Ark, or the Holy Mountain in or near Alaska where Jor-El spoke to Superman? Or is it like the winged serpent Thou had Moses raise in the desert, or----

The LORD: Tundra is freezing cold treeless grassy plain.

Me: Cold. . . grassy. . . plain?

The LORD: Cold grassy treeless plain. Usually frozen hard grassy ground. All over my Earth's Arctic regions is this endless tundra. Rolling, treeless plain in Siberia and arctic North America. Cubits and cubits and cubits of it.

Kudos to Matthew Hogan for penning that gem!
