The Grand Canyon
Adam: This place is cool, what is it called?
Yahweh: The Grand Canyon.
Adam: That's the best name you could come up with? How did you make it?
Yahweh: A giant garden hose with the nozzle set to "stream."
Adam What's a nozzle?
Yahweh: Dummy, you have one.
Adam: Oh? How long this canyon thing take to make?
Yahweh: A couple of minutes.
Adam: Unbelievable. It looks like it took a million years at least.
Yahweh: That's why it's a joke.
Adam: Well, how would anyone know it's a joke?
Yahweh: I added fossils.
Adam: What are fossils?
