Random thought

In a lot of depictions (usually cartoonish, but I thoroughly believe that cartoons can tell us more about our society than most other things), heaven is shown as a bunch of people standing around on clouds.

Why is this good? I, for one, glance at things like that and immediately think: Man, that must be boring. They've got, like, five square feet of land per person. Sure, you can fly, but give me some space to stretch out! What happens when your wings get tired? You've got to just stand there, in the middle of a cloud? That's not my heaven, I'll tell you that.
