Planet Surfing

(2)

Eventually however, God learned to 'surf the planets.' As the Universe expanded and more and more suns and planets were created, God got very good at planet surfing. He eventually achieved a planet surfing rate of a million planets per second. Nothing. There were stirrings of life everywhere in the universe but no Pleasantville. He consulted the head of the original design group:

god: I am seeing life but no Pleasantville.
lucifer: It takes time.
god: Why?
lucifer: Everything takes time in this new universe. No 'poofs.'
god: You have designed a slow-motion monstrosity. I want results.
lucifer: We did our best.
