An Aussie Genesis:
In the beginning God created day and night.
He created day for footy matches, going to the beach and barbies. He created night for
going prawning, sleeping and barbies.
God saw that it was good.
Evening came and morning came and it was the Second Day.
On the Second Day God created water - for surfing, swimming and barbies on the beach.
God saw that it was good.
Evening came and morning came and it was the Third Day.
On the Third Day God created the Earth to bring forth plants - to provide tobacco, malt
and yeast for beer and wood for barbies.
God saw that it was good.
Evening came and morning came and it was the Fourth Day.
On the Fourth Day God created animals and crustaceans for chops, sausages, steak and
prawns for barbies.
God saw that it was good.
Evening came and morning came and it was the Fifth Day.
On the Fifth day God created a bloke - to go to the footy, enjoy the beach, drink the beer
and eat the meat and prawns at barbies.
God saw that it was good.
Evening came and morning came and it was the Sixth Day.
On the Sixth Day God saw that this bloke was lonely and needed someone to go to the footy,
surf ,drink beer, eat and stand around the barbie with.
So God created Mates, and God saw that they were good blokes.
Evening came and morning came and it was the Seventh Day.
On the Seventh Day God saw that the blokes were tired and needed a rest.
So God created Sheilas - to clean the house, bear children, wash, cook and clean the
barbie.
Evening came and it was the end of the Seventh day.
God sighed, looked around at the twinkling barbie fires, heard the hiss of opening beer
cans and the raucous laughter of all the Blokes and Sheilas, smelled the aroma of grilled chops and sizzling prawns, and God saw that it was good, better than that, it was bloody good ....
IT WAS AUSTRALIA

I\'m not a meat eater, but the next time you come over I\'ll put a shrimp on the barbie.
Anoche el australiano Lleighton Hewett ganó el campeonato de tenis en Wimbledon y cuando le dieron la copa le dió un beso y dijo:
\'It\'s a ripper!\'(fabulosa!)
Estos australianos son (somos) capaces de confundir a cualquiera

| Management consultant's version of Genesis | Jul 9, 2002 |
The King James Version of the Holy Bible is widely recognised as one of the finest pieces of writing in the English language. It begins like this:
GENESIS
CHAPTER ONE
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was lig... See more The King James Version of the Holy Bible is widely recognised as one of the finest pieces of writing in the English language. It begins like this:
GENESIS
CHAPTER ONE
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and morning were the second day.
If King James had given the drafting job to a Management Consultancy, it would probably have read like this:
\'GENESIS\' - AN APPROACH TO PLANETARY CREATION
SECTION ONE
At the outset, God\'s agenda was to basically focus on his core deliverables, namely two leading-edge products, (a) heaven and (b) earth.
However, the earth lacked an overall concept, and had a low profile in terms of its key audiences. Obviously the Spirit of God had to step back and benchmark the existing waters before his game plan could get the green light.
And God\'s key message was that light was a strategic objective, and it was covered-off.
And God\'s perception of the light was that it was fit for purpose. However, his desired goal was that light and darkness should be differentiated in the marketplace.
So God branded the light \'Day\', and the darkness he branded \'I Can\'t Believe It\'s Not Light\'. And the evening session and morning session made up Day One.
Then God set out with the object of factoring-in a firmament to interface with the existing generic waters, to bring to the party two segmented brands.
So God tasked himself with the job of rolling-out a firmament, to supply a proactive vehicle for launching his two distinct waters products, and it was up and running.
And God branded the firmament \'heaven\'. And at close of play, the prioritised actions for Day Two were ticked off.
