I'm not a Godsend

 I had to go to the post office this morning to pick up a package.  It was a replacement golf shaft and it came in a tall narrow box the size you'd expect of a golf club.  As I was walking out of the post office an older lady saw me and asked "where did you get that box?"  I said "I just picked this item up, the box was mailed to me."  She said "Oh, because I've been looking for a box like that for a while.  I have a very large poster that I need to send and I can't find a box to mail it in."  I had wanted to keep this box as I need to send my old shaft back to the company that mailed me the new one, however I have access to this type of box, I can get one for free whenever I want.  It took me a second to react and as she was walking away I called her back.

I said "hold on a second."  I opened the package and put the shaft in my trunk, and I handed her the box.  She said "oh thank you so much, aren't you just a Godsend."  I said "I don't believe I am, I don't believe in God and I do good deeds on my own volition, because if we all do good deeds for each other I will receive good deeds back from others.  I'm glad I was able to help you."  She smiled and walked away.  

It was a good start to the day.

Meanwhile while god solves

Meanwhile while god solves packaging problems, Japan is fucked and a Florida Pastor and and Muslims are shanking each other over whom daddy loves best.

Nice of daddy to take time out of his day to place shipping problems over environmental disasters and tribal beefs.

This god must have a short attention span, much like a patron at a strip joint.

"HOOTERS"

I like hooters too. But my own problems, if I did believe in a fictional being, should not be the center of the universe, much less humanity.
