Creation

One day God was walking through the garden of Eden. After a short while,he came across Adam. Adam was in low spirits this particular day, and Godasked him what was wrong. Adam told the Lord that he was lonely.

God responded that He would create Adam a companion. She would walk byhis side for all eternity. She would listen to his problems. She would washhis clothes. She would keep his house clean. She would cook his meals. Shewould do anything to keep him happy. Most importantly, she would nevercomplain or nag him.

To this Adam was ecstatic. His spirits lifted immediately. The Lordhated to tell him that this creature would come at a price. God told Adamthat the creature would cost him an arm and a leg.

Adam responded, "What can I get for a rib?" ... And the rest is history.
