Default Yoopers

On a tour of Michigan, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit the U.P. for some sightseeing. He was cruising along in a campground in the Pope-mobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods.

A helpless man, wearing sandals, hawaiian shorts, a save-the-whales tee shirt and a tree-hugger hat was struggling frantically, thrashing around trying to free himself from the jaws of a 8 foot black bear. As the pope watched horrified, a group of yoopers came racing up. One ran up and quickly fired a 44 mag into the bear's chest. The other two reached out and pulled the bleeding semiconscious man from the bear.

Then, using long clubs, the three yoopers beat the bear to death and hauled it to their truck.

Immediately the Pope shouted and summoned them to come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions!" he told them. "I heard that there was bitter hatred between yoopers and environmental activists. But now I have seen with my own eyes that this is not true." As the Pope drove off, one yooper asked his buddies "Who was that?" "It was the Pope," one replied. "He is in direct contact with God, and has access to all of God's wisdom." "Well," the yooper said, "he may have access to God's wisdom, but he sure doesn't know anything about bear hunting. By the way, is the bait holding up okay, or do we need to go back down to Ann Arbor and grab another one?"

Excellent!

By the way, for all you non-Michigan residents out there,
yooper = those who reside in the Upper Penninsula.
