You know how some people say the
streets of heaven are paved with gold?
Don’t you think that’s a little clichéd?
I think they may have lifted that from
descriptions of El Dorado. Anyway,
what good will gold do us in heaven?
It’s not like we can spend it anywhere.
Also, I was thinking that since gold is
a pretty soft metal (and not very
practical for street paving) , what
mineral do you suppose God mixes it
with so that it will stand up to all the
heavenly foot traffic? Or car traffic?
Wow! That reminds me, if we can
choose what car we get to drive in
heaven, I wonder if I might be able to
reserve a Lamborghini Countach.
Imagine that! Coming through! Outa
my way! Ha ha ha. No need for airbags
up here.
