Questioning The Nature of Heaven
Following the advent of powered flight it turns out that Cirrufim and Nimbulim are really just types of clouds and not fat babies after all. Is it possible that all the other heavenly creatures are just atmospheric phenomena also?
One thing has always puzzled me about clouds. Many people say things like 'Ooh look, it's our Mam!" when they see a cloud, but nobody says "Ooh look, that cumulus is the spitting image of altostratus". I think it is much more likely that a cloud will look like another cloud than a motorbike. Oh, and do angels need passports? Boro Nut |

Cirrufim? Do you mean Cherubim? I think they are still fat babies, even if imaginary.
All I know is that you never see a cloud making a bad fashion statement. I don't even know if this is funny enough for the humor section, but I'll try it there. |

Then we get a lot of Cumulonymphos out here this time of year, too. They say that on TV, but lots of guys just say "fuckin' thunderstorms!"
Oh, and Boro: it's been scientifically shown that over 14% of cumulus clouds look like England + Wales + Scotland. |

Heaven is just 3 feet off the ground. It vibrates at a quantum level frequency so we mortals can't see or feel it.
