WISH YOU WERE HERE:
A man was walking along a California beach when he stumbled across
an old lamp. He picked it up and rubbed
it and out popped a genie. The genie said "OK so you released me from
the lamp blah blah blah, but this is the
fourth time this week and I'm getting a little sick of these wishes,
so you can forget about three. You only get one
wish." The man sat and thought about it for a while and said,
"I've always wanted to go to Hawaii but I'm too
scared to fly and I get very seasick. So could you build me a bridge
to Hawaii so I can drive over there?" The
genie laughed a replied, "That's impossible. Think of the logistics
of that. How would the supports ever reach the
bottom of the Pacific? Think of how much concrete... How much steel!!!
No think of another wish." The man
agreed and tried to think of a really good wish. He said, "I've been
married and divorced four times. My wives
have always said I don't care and that I'm insensitive. I wish that
I could understand women. To know what they
are thinking when they give me the silent treatment, to know why they
are crying, to know what they want when
they say "nothing"..." The genie replied, "You want that bridge two
lanes or four?".
