I have the following code:

Public Class TestClass
    Public Sub Test()
        If theGlobal IsNot Nothing Then Throw New Exception("What gives!")
    End Sub

    Private Shared theGlobal As Object = Nothing
    Private Shared ReadOnly Property Global
        Get
            If theGlobal Is Nothing Then
                theGlobal = New Object()
            End If

            Return theGlobal 
        End Get
    End Property
End Class

Am stumped... Why is theGlobal object NOT Nothing?
