//Dil Se Desi// Noah in 2006

In the year 2006, the Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in
the United States, 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
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 inspector about the need
for a sprinkler system.  My neighbors claim that I've violated the
neighborhood zoning laws by building the Ark in my yard and exceeding
the height limitations. We had to go to the Development Appeal Board
for a decision.  Then the Department of Transportation demanded a
bond be posted 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 spotted 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, an animal rights group sued me.
They insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. 
They argued the accommodation was too restrictive, and it was cruel
and inhumane to put so many animals in a confined space.

Then the EPA 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 crew.  Immigration and
Naturalization is checking the green-card 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 IRS seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying to leave
the country illegally with endangered species.

So, forgive me, Lord, but it would 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."
