NOAH TODAY


In the year 2010, the Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in Belfast and said:
"Once again, the earth has become wicked and over
-populated, and I see the end of all flesh before me. Build another Ark and save 2 of every living thing along with a few good humans."

He gave Noah the blueprints, saying:
"You have 6 months to build the Ark before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights."

Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah
weeping in his yard - but no Ark.

"Noah!," He roared, "I'm about to start the rain!
Where is the Ark?"

"Forgive me, Lord," begged Noah, "but things have changed."

"I needed a Building Permit."









"I've been arguing with the Boat Inspector
about the need for a sprinkler system."








"My neighbours claim that I've violated the
Neighbourhood Bye-Laws by building the Ark in my
back garden and exceeding the height limitations. We had to
go to the Local Planning Committee for a decision."








"Then the Local Council and the Electricity Company demanded a shed load of money for the future costs of moving power
lines and other overhead obstructions, to clear the
passage for the Ark's move to the sea. I told them
that the sea would be coming to us, but they would
hear nothing of it."








"Getting the wood was another problem. There's a ban
on cutting local trees in order to save the Greater Spotted Barn Owl."

"I tried to convince the environmentalists that I needed the wood to save the owls - but no go!"








"When I started gathering the animals the SSPCA took me to court. They insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. They
argued the accommodations were too restrictive, and
it was cruel and inhumane to put so many animals in
a confined space."








"Then the Scottish Environmental Agency ruled that I couldn't build the Ark until they'd conducted an environmental impact study
on your proposed flood."








"I'm still trying to resolve a complaint with the
Human Rights Commission on how many minorities I'm
supposed to hire for my building gang."








"Immigration are checking the
Visa status of most of the people who want to work."








"The trades unions say I can't use my sons. They
insist I have to hire only Union workers with
Ark-building experience."








"To make matters worse, the Inland Revenue seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying to leave the country illegally
with endangered species."








"So, forgive me, Lord, but it will take at least 10
years for me to finish this Ark."










"Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine,
and a rainbow stretched across the sky."










Noah looked up in wonder and asked,
"You mean you're not going to destroy the world?"

"No," said the Lord.
" The Government beat me to it."

i see a mistake in that corkie.


it starts off saying noah is living in belfast then says the sspca (Scottish society for prevention of cruelty to animals) and then the Scottish Environmental Agency want to do a study. when i did geography, belfast was in nothern ireland. lol
just thought i would point this out before the irish and scottish contingent get hold of it. you don't want to be confusing them now.
