Humor: Creation

by Sam C.

Created on: January 28, 2010

Hi, my name is Jay Hoover and I was around for years and years before time existed. I know that doesn't make sense to you, but that's because you're a stupid mortal who can't possibly understand. I got bored of nothing existing even though I existed, so I decided to make a universe to play around with. It was a fairly complex procedure that took six days, and it was so hard to do that I had to rest for a day afterward even though all I did was say a few words each day and things came into existence. I know I have total control over the universe and am omnipotent, but it was actually quite hard, another thing that you can't understand because you're a mortal.

In the beginning, my world was without form, and void. Because of this, I formulated my complex plan to make the perfect universe. I picked out one part of it to focus most of my attention on. "Earth" was the name of this part. There are three parts of the universe: "Firmament," which is everything outside of Earth, "Land," which is the dry part of Earth, and "Sea," which is the wet part of Earth.

On the first day, I realized needed some light in order to concentrate on the fine details even though I can see everything. I just said "let there be a light switch" and there was a light switch connected to a light.It was perfect so far, I was happy, so I went to bed.

On the second day, I made the two largest parts of the universe: the Sea and the basic structure of the Firmament. I divided the universe into two parts: the waters above and the waters below. The waters below were the Sea and the waters above were the Firmament's basic structure, which I now called the "Skies" because they weren't homogeneous, there were clouds with more water than the rest. After seeing what I did, I liked it and stopped.

On the third day, I made Land. I commanded the Sea to become concentrated in certain areas. Now, there was a dry area, the Land. The Land looked pretty desolate, so I made some plants. After seeing this lush terrain that I now had, I was happy, so I went to bed and fell asleep.

On the fourth day, I made a schedule for the light to be on and off. I also finished making the Firmament. When the light was on, it was called "Day," and when there was no light, it was called "Night." I turned on the light , which I named "Sun" and made another, dimmer light called "Moon" that I use as a night light, which is also in the Firmament. I also made several smaller lights called "Stars." I think that Moon was placed in the
